  • Billy Mays

    Billy Mays passed away this morning:

    Wasn't he doing some sort of show called "Pitchmen"? I heard about it, but haven't watched it yet.

    I feel for his wife, daughter and stepson.

    This is getting kind of weird - things don't happen in fours, do they?

    They happen in three's, right? So should we expect two more deaths soon ... ?

    So sad about Billy Mays. He was only 50! I read that he hit his head during a turbulent flight the day before he died, there's some speculation that might have caused it?

      One of my friends posted something on facebook to the extent of "yeah, these things happen in threes, but Billy Mays wanted to make sure that if you call right now, you'll get one more free!"

      Terrible, but I laughed.

        I honestly thought the guy on the radio said Willie Mays! I have no idea who Billy Mays is.

          He's that noisy guy that sells oxyclean, knives, and about a dozen other products on tv.

            That's exactly how I described him. I think he also had a reality show on Discovery or one of those channels. I'll be interested to know if the plane landing had any bearing, DH thought that was interesting when he heard it.

              They are saying no. He died of a heart attack.

                Wow, so cocaine played a major factor in his death.
