RIP Billy Mays
Re: RIP Billy Mays
Yes, as Andy points out, he was a pretty big name in town, so this is quite shocking and sad.
Re: RIP Billy Mays
Bummer....RIP Billy.
Why couldn't it have been this guy instead:

At least Billy Mays was a good man.

Re: RIP Billy Mays
OK, who is that (I assume it's some other infomercial guy, but since I don't have TV...)?
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
Re: RIP Billy Mays
It's Vince-the "Sham-Wow" guy. Sham wows are a super dooper cloth that can pick up the Atlantic ocean with just one swipe. Vince is probably hands down the most annoying fast talking snidely of the infomercial circuit. Recently, he got busted for assaulting a hooker after she bit his tongue. Nice guy

I am SO glad I don't have TV...
Sorry I asked...
And now back to our regularly scheduled program...
RIP Billy (even though I really don't know much about him either...)

Re: RIP Billy Mays
Yeah, and Vince has a penchant for things that you read about in tabloids. He almost lost his tongue in a fight that you have to read about to believe and wound up in jail.

well, stated Mike. Couldn't have said it better myself.
Re: RIP Billy Mays
That's a good comparison, Todd! I hadn't put the two together, but you've nailed it.

OK, now I have to ask, who's the cartoon guy?
Yeah, I don't get out much...
