I never really looked up to him but if you read the story you got to admire what he accomplished. From selling mops on the boardwalk to being a television icon and one of the best at what he does. Sort of reminds me of how Don LaFontaine (my personal fav dude) got into his business.
Seems to be quite the week of celebrity deaths.

His obnoxiously loud voice will ring in my ears forever!
He was told that he should not kill, and he did not kill, until he got into the Army. Then he was told to kill, and he killed.

Re: Billy Mays Dead at 50
That's the saddest thing I have ever heard. I feel for him.My dad didn't wake up this morning.. I'm sure you'll all hear about it. It hasn't yet hit me but it's about to.
A local famous blacksmith died before MJ so that's six.

I could live with MJ being gone, but not Billy Mays!
