The Morality of Mortality

RIP Billy Mays.
Wow. Who would've thought? Our man from Zorbies, ESPN.com, KABOOM!, and of course, Oxiclean, leaving us at age 50. He was on a plane which blew out a tire during landing, and he bumped his head on the overhead baggage hold. Ouch. He mentioned how no one need worry because he had a hard head. Later that day he complained of not feeling well, and shortly after, passed away. It really brings me down. That guy was awesome. As of late I had made it a point to watch his commercials and spoofs of them on YouTube (such as Heavy Weapons Guy KABOOM!), so to hear of his passing is very ironic and saddening for me. Not just because he was entertaining, seemed to be a very happy person, and was often a subject of conversation, but because he was a person like everyone else. I feel that we, perhaps as Americans don't see those who die really as people, unless their deaths have somehow directly affected our own lives. He was a man who was a son, a father, and a husband. He had parents, a wife, children, maybe a dog, all of whom will mourn him more personally than we ever could. Of course, we all pulled together and freaked out over Steve Irwin, but really, he was someone most of us probably identified with in childhood, and truly how often is such a connection made? I feel genuinely saddened about Mays' death. The death of MJ, Farrah Fawcet, and Ed McMahon are all sad occasions as well, but I believe posterity will remember them well enough. It is more important to remember those who won't get their own headline on MSN.com. That's you, I, and Billy Mays.

I guess it's all up to Vince (Slap Chop, ShamWOW) to fill our void. But Oxiclean was the shit!

ALSO,

What is up with all of these famous people dying this weekend? Something's going wrong, just as I said before. The kids still aren't alright, and the panic is spreading.

love you to death. If I don't get this back, I understand. But I have a game for you. Once you read this letter, you must send it to 15 people that you really care about, including the person that sent it to you. If you receive at least 7 back, then you are loved. Nobody knows what they have until they loose it. You never leave the person whom you love for the one you like, because that person who you like will leave you for the person whom they love. Tonight, right at 12:00am, your true love is going to realize that they LOVE you! Then something is going to happen to you between 1:00 and 2:00 a.m. Tomorrow, be ready for the greatest shock of your life. If you break this chain, you are going to have bad luck in love for the next years of your life. Send this to 15 people in 15 minutes. Do it if you wanna know who your real love is YOU CANNOT RETURN THIS AS OF NOW
