This is not a joke, TV pitch king Billy Mays has passed, http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,529328,00.html
They always die in fives! In all seriousness, for a huckster he seemed like a nice guy and I feel for his family!
I happened to be flipping the channels and he was just on the Tonight Show just a couple of days ago.
Probably not near as many as me! I have survived to 51, I have beat Billy and Michael so far. Heard that Billy was on that rough landing flight yesterday and that he was hit in the head from falling debris, my guess is that had something to do with it. My brief case ways over 30 pounds and is stored overhead. Yes, I know there is nothing brief in my brief case, it is a glorified purse and computer bag.
Went out and bought some Mighty Putty today because of Billy. Really liked him and enjoyed The Pitchmen show.
2009 Sympathetic shopping list: 1. Kung Fu Master DVD set 2. Farrah Fawcett poster 3. MJ's Thriller on CD 4. The Gopher tool 5. ????
about right. I noticed that TV Land or some other network was showing Charlie's Angels earlier. You know I haven't really thought about it that much, but young boys nowadays don't have any bombshells to admire like they did in the seventies. In the passing of 2009 celebrities...I forgot about the actress who passed earlier in the year...Liam Neilson's wife. I can't remember her name.
She hit her head in a skiing accident and they thought she was fine since she was feeling ok. Turned out she had massive brain trauma (or something like that). Sounds like the same thing happened to Billy Mays. There's a TV interview from yesterday with him talking about how he hit his head during that landing....good thing it's on tape - I smell a lawsuit...
Sounding Like He Had A Heart Attack......... and not head truama. http://www.wral.com/news/national_world/national/story/5463357/
