OK, the rules of the game. I'll name someone, and the next person to post has to decide whether that person a) was born without a soul, b) sold their soul, c) lost their soul, or d) keeps their soul in a box to maintain their immortality. Please note the following examples:
lowrentvalkyrie: OK, how about George Bush, Sr?

WlrdRuler: what about shrub jr?
lowrentvalkyrie: sold for drugs
