I was just watching that 30 minutes ago. Geez.

This is insane, people are dropping like flies. If this is another heart attack. I thought he was in fairly descent shape, guess not.

Yeah, 50 seems to be a curse now. One of my cardiologists told me I have a good 10 maybe 15 years left, who knows maybe 50 is going to be when my number comes up!

what ashame.my prayers go out to him and his family even tho i didn't know him.he really seemed like he truly enjoyed what he did for a living.just goes to show you,you never know when your time is up so make each day count with your loved ones.it's truly sad.

 

[MR. BMJ]

This one seems to hit home just because he seemed like a guy that you could just hang-out with and have fun. Not that it makes him more important than the other misfortunes in celeb entertainment.

I was really digging Pitchmen on the Discovery Channel. He was good at what did, and found a way to make a nitch for himself out of informercials.

What a terrible last month we are seeing...RIP Billy, and everybody

So sad. I need my ShamWow to soak up my tears.

 

[marshallmadman]

This one really hurt! I think just like everyone else that Billy was a genuinely likable guy. Billy, to me, was a living, breathing symbol of the American Dream. He was a normal guy that worked his butt off to make his place in the world. Like him or not, he was proof positive that it's out there for you if you just go after it.

 

[MightyJohn]

It is a shame...he seemed to have bumped his head that day before on a rough plane landing that blew out the tires on the plane...what a shame, too young

 

[superman21]

WOW, yea when i found out about this i was just shocked, I mean this is WAY too many people to be dropping like this the past week. RIP Billy, Along with everyone else.

It appears that what happened to Billy Mays is the samething that happened to actress Natasha Richardson.

I read today in the paper that when he went to bed he told his wife was wasn't feeling good.

medical examiner just said it was heart disease.....

Yeah, it sounds like he had enough plaque deposits in his coronary arteries to create a lack of blood flow. The doc was talking about cholesterol.
