I just read about it on Yahoo News, and I still can't believe it! One of the greatest talents of our age, the legendary Billy Mays, is dead! He was only 50, far too young to die! I'm crying real tears right now, and have already used up an entire role of toilet paper blowing my nose. Two-ply, of course. One-ply just couldn't hold all my mucousy mess the way I'm feeling right now. I'm crushed! I'm broken up!

They say he was on a US Airways flight that had a rough landing Saturday and bonked his head really really really hard, but that he was okay because he had a hard head. Do you think his family will sue US Airways? What about the plane's manufacturer? Or the company that made the thing he bonked his head on? Or the stewardesses that didn't protect him from bonking his head? Will they sue them, too? I'm just so broken up right now...

These things always come in threes: first Ed McMahon, then Farrah Fawcett, and now the great Billy Mays. I'm so stunned, I mean, this was so sudden and all! I remember when he was just another pitchman hawking soap & knives on the boardwalk at Atlantic City, but then ... he made his presence known with the unforgettable Orange Glo!

Do you remember those late-night ads? I sure do. His performance was absolutely mesmerizing, the way he showed us how OxyClean was the greatest cleaning product since soap & water, mixing a tiny bit with blue water in a bowl and watching, spellbound, as the blue water turned clear right before your very eyes ... it was like magic!

I know the world will never be the same. When I get the chance I'm going to create a website memorial for Billy, but for right now I'm in shock and can barely move.

So my question is ... what about you? How did Billy Mays effect your life? What was your favorite Billy Mays commercial? Who will his family sue? Did he have a pet chimpanzee? How do you think his wife feels about his sudden death? What about his children, how do you think they feel? Does anyone know if his doctor had anything to say about his dying like that? Will they sue his doctor?

Feel free to post your thoughts, your memories about Billy and his line of fantasmic products, and how he impacted your life.

I'm gonna go get another roll of toilet paper. One-ply, I'm all out of two-ply...

sure, he's ineffective, and he died this morning. i can't have faith it... what's it, Deathweek? it extremely is loopy! MJ, Farrah side... who next, George Bush? I mean, it extremely is extremely loopy... and have you ever observed that many of the human beings who've died have been youthful? Madonna, the Queen of dad, is in simple terms 50 or some thing... she must be coming in some days. it is unhappy, isn't it, how various those with various opportunities are dying so early?

His family his looking for his missing doctor. He was giving him high doses of Oxiclean to snort up his nose to kill pain (and clean his GI tract out). He overdosed.
