The Mausoleum of Fame: Careers that Died in 2007 [Starked SF, Unforgiving News from the Bay]

Translate Into:

In an effort to overcome the genuine gloom of our obit overview for last year, StarkedSF offers a quick look at careers that perished last year.

A separate piece on Jerry Fallwell is in the works.

Karl Rove: Sure, the Pirates of the Queeribean star wanted to spend more time with his family. Who took the photos, and what farm animals were involved?

Barry Bonds: Strike Three.

Anna Nicole Smith. Smith herself was preceded in death by her career. See the StarkedSF take here.

Former S.F. supervisor Ed Jew: See StarkedSF’s tips on how to avoid involvement with the FBI.

Britney Spears: You can put away the gas mask–that’s just the local landfill. Photos of underwear-free Spears are in demand only to scare away flies.

Michael Vick: See our HWJE How Would Jesus Euthanize? commentary.

Next year! George W. Bush, Dick Cheney.
