Re: RIP Billy Mays.
I can't beleive it, he was just on the news last night because he was on a plane that had a flat tire on the forward landing gear when they landed at TIA yesterday.
http://www2.tbo.com/content/2009/jun...s-blow-at-tia/ TAMPA - What Cindy McGee will remember most about her trip to Philadelphia this week is the landing of her US Airways flight in Tampa this afternoon. "There was a slam and we all went forward," she said a couple of hours after the hard landing at Tampa International Airport. "We skidded. After a while, the pilot said we had a problem and to stay on the plane." U.S. Airways Flight 1241 blew its front tires as it landed, forcing the airport to shut down the busy north-south runway. US Airways spokesman Jim Olson said that none of the 138 passengers and five crew members was injured in the incident. Among the passengers was television pitchman Billy Mays, authorities said.

Re: RIP Billy Mays.
It's saddening to hear of any man dying, especially that young. But I have to admit to a sense of relief that I won't have to listen to that shouting any more.
