hmmm wow...from wikipedia: Mays was found dead in his Tampa home on June 28, 2009.[2][1] According to Fox News, Mays was on board a US Airways flight that blew out its front tires as it landed at a Tampa airport on June 27, the day before his death. None of the 138 passengers and five crew members were injured in the incident, but several passengers reported having bumps and bruises, according to the station. It is unsure whether Mays' death was related to the incident.[2]

I was thinking the same thing.
According to someone on the Jacko thread, they now come in 8s. I'll bet money it won't be Abe Vigoda.

I caught part of one of those 'Pitchmen' shows where an infomercial was being taped in his house and they showed his daughter, she couldn't be more than about 3 years old.

I’m actually very sorry…the way I see it, Billy did me a big favor over the years by blocking out so many other commercials that were truly painful to watch.
I never bought any of the stuff he pitched but that’s ok…his shtick was really funny and not at all mean spirited. “Gail Wind Force” – “Embarrassing Weeds” – “Strong enough to pull this 28,000 Lb truck”…bhahaha.
So long man
