Billy was awesome; I'm going to miss him. Unlike most people I enjoyed his commercials ._. Imo this is way worse then Jackson's death.

Mays was found unresponsive by his wife inside his Tampa, Fla., home at 7:45 a.m. on Sunday, according to the Tampa Police Department. Police said there were no signs of forced entry to Mays' residence and foul play is not suspected. Authorities said an autopsy should be complete by Monday afternoon. Mays, 50, was on board a US Airways flight that blew out its front tires as it landed at a Tampa airport on Saturday, MyFOXTampa.com reported. US Airways spokesman Jim Olson said that 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. Authorities have not said whether Mays' death was related to the incident. "Although Billy lived a public life, we don't anticipate making any public statements over the next couple of days. Our family asks that you respect our privacy during these difficult times," Mays wife, Deborah, said in a statement on Sunday. Ed McMahon, Farah Fawcett, Michael Jackson and now Billy Mays.

Mays died on Sunday which technically means it was a new week. Ah, why the hell am I being so picky? An awesome spokesman is gone, and in the wake of three other celebrities no less. June has just not been kind to the famous.

Huh? What's that post above me say? Posts: 484 Group: =SB= Governors Member #9,139 Joined: July 7, 2008 Gender: Male Favorite System: Wii Favorite Sonic Game: Sonic Adventure	My dad just told me about this about 10 minutes ago. Geeze, there's so many people departing just in the past two weeks. It's starting to get a little unnerving. .__.;
	If someone asks me if I'm enjoying life, unless it's something really unforgivable, I can't help but answer that I am. No matter how much despair there is, I'm satisfied with just living...Just being allowed to be here really is a wonderful thing. -Shiki Tohno È̡͚̱̯̝̲̖̯̟̃̓̋̔ͨ̆͡r̠̤̬̦̞͇̔̇ͬ͛̽͊̀ͅȩ̼̳͓̬͍̙̜̖̋̿ͅķ̫̠̲ͫi̶̥͔̼̙̣̾̅̏ͧ̐ͨ̎̚͠ 하루 하루 - Ereki's Daily Blog~

	I am THE self proclaimed Sonic Geek! Deep stuff below: Spoiler: click to toggle The world. Filled with millions of differences. But despite the fact, we all are brothers and sisters, Inhabiting and living under the same sky. But despite this, we war and kill our siblings over trivial things, Staining the earth on which we all walk, With the blood of our brothers, With the blood of our sisters. The sky under which we go through our lives weeps, For the clouds surely know of the atrocities we commit. We slay, maim, gouge, and destroy our siblings, In the name of things which ought not be fought for. Approach a member of the family not, With the tainted lash of hatred, But with the pure flower of love. ======================================= The sword. A weapon who's blade is stained red With the blood of its countless victims. Were it alive, what would such a being feel? Would it live only to fight, And fight only to live? Would it be controlled By those with the skill to do so? I believe that it would cry For each person it has ever brought harm to, Its tears as red as the blood it has spilled.

It's sad to see him gone. =c

MJ started here but was merged into the Entertainment section and then Billy Mays was merged here, it's inconsistent.

♥Tim Curry♥ Posts: 446 Group: D-Rank Soldier Member #10,054 Joined: June 13, 2009 Gender: Female Favorite System: PC Favorite Sonic Game: Sonic 2 Current Mood: Calm	Wow... usually bad news or "deaths" travel in threes, strange this time it travels in four. I guess Billy Mays is sort of like the stouter version of Barry Scott of Cillit Bang. I have only ever saw the youtube poops with Billy Mays, but it is always sad to see someone who seems like a genuinely nice and enthusiastic individual die.
	BOOM HEADSHOT! They say I'm no good. They say I'm bad. Let me tell you honey, I'm the best you'll ever have!
