@ehBeth,
Since I don't wear flip flops or sandals outside, a manicure would be nice I suppose.
Here's a toughie. X number of celebrities (musicians, filmmakers, authors, political activists) will die in 2017.
1. Have most of them die in the first six months of 2017. Give us a time to ponder and recoup from their leaving us on this mortal coil;
or
2. Have most of them die in the latter six months of 2017. Give them more time to expose us to their culture changing works but kicking our soul's butt in terms of accepting how bad 2017 might end up being at the end of that year.
