    Default Billy Mays...

    Damn... I can honestly say when MJ died I was a bit suprised, but honestly expected it in a way, too.

    But Billy Mays??? Fuck... THAT was a shocker. I would have bought anything from that guy....

    He put infomercials on the MAP!!

    RIP.... May your beard stay black as night forever....

    I'm not sure if you guys watch the show "Pitchmen" on Discovery... I've seen him around Orlando a couple of times in his super fancy Bently! But when I heard this news earlier this morning I was shocked! I didn't believe it. The man looked healthy as can be. He truly was the face of infomercials.

    In other news... He apparently has been in a bit of an accident yesterday as well. Details here:

    I have been watching the show (Pitchmen) on Discovery Channel with him and Anthony Sullivan they really do put a lot of heart and thought into the products they sell with direct response advertising.

    They did a great spot on the tonight show recently

    He is a good guy that leaves two kids behind I do believe.
