Billy Mays is Dead

I actually liked him.

I thought you were joking, 'til I googled it. Wow! Celebs are dropping like flies

hmmm wow...from wikipedia: Mays was found dead in his Tampa home on June 28, 2009.[2][1] According to Fox News, Mays was on board a US Airways flight that blew out its front tires as it landed at a Tampa airport on June 27, the day before his death. None of the 138 passengers and five crew members were injured in the incident, but several passengers reported having bumps and bruises, according to the station. It is unsure whether Mays' death was related to the incident.[2]

Does Mojo have a good alibi???

word on the street is it was travis the shamwow guy. He wanted to be the no.1 infomercial guy...kinda like if you go to prison, you gotta punch the biggest meanest dude in the face if you want to be taken seriously...same thing, except for the death part

David Carradine, Ed McMahon, Farrah Faucet, Michael Jackson, Billy Mays...

I thought you guys said it came in 3's?

sad really...swayze is probably sweating bullets right now

Swazy is probably ready to get it over with. Then we'll see if Ghost was a real story.

Uhh, no actually.

I bet Chuck Norris just wanted to eliminate the closest thing to a threat to his beard.

I was thinking the same thing.

According to someone on the Jacko thread, they now come in 8s. I'll bet money it won't be Abe Vigoda.

I caught part of one of those 'Pitchmen' shows where an infomercial was being taped in his house and they showed his daughter, she couldn't be more than about 3 years old.

Don't look at me. I'm famous, but I'm not a celebrity.

ECM was my first thought when I had heard... youch

I’m actually very sorry…the way I see it, Billy did me a big favor over the years by blocking out so many other commercials that were truly painful to watch.

I never bought any of the stuff he pitched but that’s ok…his shtick was really funny and not at all mean spirited. “Gail Wind Force” – “Embarrassing Weeds” – “Strong enough to pull this 28,000 Lb truck”…bhahaha.

So long man

Maybe they'll seal his casket with Mighty Putty to keep him safe for future generations.
