Oh wow.....This has been a great week. We've lost too many great people.

Billy Mays will be missed, I'll remember him every time I see one of his commercials.

Heres the Yahoo News link for those interested.

i just found out a few min. ago he didnt even finish his first season, he had a 5 and 7 years old daughters, dang people are dying a lot!
Truly a sad week. A lot of great names have left us. Unhappy
But who's gonna sell me Mighty Putty? Unhappy
Oh I just seen this. I liked his commercials alot... Smith people dying alot
I really liked his commercials too... seeing Oxyclean, Orange Glo, Mighty Putty, and other stuff will never be the same Unhappy
Unhappy This sux. Those commercials are awesome. (took me a minute to realize who this was)
This week has been a bad one. :\ Hope their family gets through this alright.
He too was 50 years old, when he died..Just like MJ. His commercials were pro.
^ I pointed that out yesterday to DKS, hes really upset. Unhappy

The only time I ever watched stuff about Billy Mays was when I watched Jab00dy Dubs.
Its a real shame that our graetist advertiser had to go... death is such a sad thing...Unhappy
You kinda miss the loud shouting that you got used watching TV. The world lost a great human joke and a good salesman. Rock on Billy, rock on.
Rest in peace Billy...your my hero.

Bwahahahaahahahaahah!!!!!!

I know this isn't "contributing" to the thread, but damn Brad, I applaud you for that one.

On topic though, I never bought one of Billy's products, but everyone knew the Oxyclean guy... R.I.P.

Bro I think Billy Mays is cool since I was a little kid....
I have no idea who this Billy Mays is but, hey, everyone here seems kinda depressed (except for Brad...) and someone dying is always a bad thing, so...

Rest In Peace, mister Mays I didn't know anything about.

You called him your hero. You accuse everyone of being "brainwashed" and loving the Jonas Brothers, and Miley Cyrus, and the Oxyclean commercial guy is your hero? I thought he was cool too, but I'm not gonna call a guy who can grow a decent beard and attempt to sell me stuff my hero.

if only there was some sort of device where you could type words in and information would be shown to you regarding what you'd typed

Then instead of talking about it.... try and do something to make it happen Brad. Joyful_2
