First Jacko, now this:

Billy Mays, most well-known for his OxyClean commercials, died in his sleep last night, according to the Discovery Channel. The spokesman was 50 years old.

Why is God coming after 50-year-olds all of a sudden?  If Madonna goes, so help me I'm gonna wrap myself in Shamwow cloths, ship myself to Disneyland and have myself frozen next to Walt under the POTC ride, with instructions not to thaw me out until my 51st birthday.

Oh, c'mon! There are many more worthy 50 year-olds who need to depart this life. What about that annoying ShamWow guy, Vince Shlomi? OK, he's only 44 but we can make an exception.

Bill (age 47) noticed this as well. As I am a mere 41, I can relax for a few years. Hopefully they'll find what's in the water before then.

Oh come on now. Get the whole story (or at least more of it than you did). Billy flew home yesterday on a plane which landed harder than usual and blew a tire. Stuff was falling down from above him, including something which bopped him on the head pretty good. He got home, then later in the day complained of not feeling well. Sadly, he simply went to bed without having it checked out. Hello!? Does the name Natasha Richardson ring any bells, folks? When someone who has had a head injury doesn't feel well, they should not be allowed to go to sleep until it's explored by medical personnel. They don't wake up.

Just sayin', as someone we know says....

You can just smell the lawsuit.

Crap! That's exactly what I said to Ray when I came in the door!

Bummer that he died ON my birthday. :-/ This has been a rough week.
