Well, folks, they just keep dropping like flies! I know he really has nothing to do with the world of screenwriting or even really Hollywood but he's our favorite pitch man and I felt moved to post this today.
Billy Mays ("Billy Mays here for Oxy Clean!") has passed away.
It's sounding like he died today from an injury he received yesterday when his US Airways flight landed. Plane had a flat tire and, because he wasn't seatbelted, whacked his head really hard from the roughness of the landing. Oh well.
I do have to add this though. Meant to make you laugh and, as a matter of fact, I may have found it here in this forum a few months back... or was it Facebook?
Rest in peace, my fellow Floridian... (I was born in Ocala, FL)

Oh God... it just dawned on me. Now, we're stuck with Vince... Sham, Wow!
