DEATH POOL PREDICTS ROBERT DOWNEY, JR. WILL DIE BEFORE 2000

CHICAGO (Wireless Flash) -- Here's a morbid thought: Robert Downey, Jr. and Bob Hope might not make it to the millennium. That's according to the MillenniumHell.com website, which is offering odds on what celebs will be six feet under within the next 37 days. Currently, the odds are even money that Hope, Downey, Ronald Reagan or Johnny Cash will die before January 1. The odds are 2 to 1 that Katherine Hepburn, Joey Bishop or O.J. Simpson will kick the bucket before year's end. It's 5 to 1 that Donald Trump, Richard Simmons and the entire cast of "Friends" will die before New Year's Day. By the way, if you're hoping to cash in on the death pool, you're out of luck. A spokesman for the website says the odds are "for entertainment purposes only."
