Poor Billy Mays!



I know Billy Mays isn't the biggest name in entertainment, but here is a vibrant individual whose demise is definitely premature.

I don't know anything about the man other than he sold a lot of products that made you go, "Hmm, that could work for me," until you snap out of it and decide you don't need a fifth bottle of floor cleaner.

Just recently, while watching "Deadliest Catch," there was an unexpected leak in one of the pipes on the Cornelia Marie, and I immediately thought that the crew could have used some of that magic putty sold by Billy Mays.

The story is that there was a hard landing while flying on US Airways and that Billy was hit in the head by some luggage. I guess we won't know the final outcome of what caused his death until a formal autopsy is done. (I bet US Airways is hoping the man died of natural causes, and not head trauma.)

Anyway, I wonder what will happen to his show Pitch Men.
