      Wow, that sucks.. I actually like their Pithcman Show on Discovery Channel... He and His partner were very smart men.. Reading the article, it seems it may have been a possible head injury..A little too close to be a coincidence..

      My money would be on Bob Barker!

      This has been a terrible week for celebs. It seems every time you think it's over, you see one more shocking story.

      Its going to be someone you don't think it is. Who'da thunk it would have been Jacko or Mays? Both 50.

      Too bad.. he seemed like a good guy.

      Why couldn't it have been the Shamwow guy instead?

      Ha Ha..That we would have been much better there...The Sham Wow guy, we would have been much better off...LOL

      Apparently that was a sore spot for Mays. That guy just remarketed one of May's Products, and May's made reference to it in one of his shows on Discovery Channel..

      After watching some of the Discovery stuff, I got the feeling Mays was more down to earth then I used to think. It was pretty cool of him to give that young kid $5000 in investment into his spot stain cleaner.

      RIP, Billy.

      Although I generally despise commercials (though I did always chuckle at Billy Mays' commercials), Billy's recent ESPN commercials were very funny! After seeing him poke fun at himself, I had a new found respect and like for the man.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      I maintain he has been dead for years. He's just too stubborn to fall down.
