I agree, kona! Too young! Billie had everything going his way.

Make sure you keep your seatbelt securely fastened on aircraft take off and landing.

It appears that Billy Mays may not have done so and in a rough landing took a bump on the head, which may have been the precipitating cause of death.

I am kinda hoping he returns from the grove and shouts, "But wait! There's more!"

The autopsy ruled that out. He had heart disease, and had suffered a heart attack in his sleep.

Not me, but an ad agency somewhere is feeling some pain right now.

Yesterday morning, HLN played one of his sf spots (some car scratch stuff), and I thought, "Oh geeee. What if his wife and family were up and watching the news and sees this?" You'd think they would pull these, but I guess the almighty dollar is more important than tasteful behavior. (DUH! I'm speaking to you Rush Limbaugh, Joe Jackson, and Paris Hilton!)
