At 7:49AM this morning (June 28), loud hairy TV pitchman Billy Mays was pronounced dead – as simple as 1-2-3. It is currently not known if the death of the 50-year-old was related to a minor airline accident injury from the previous day.

Farewell Billy – he lived life with an exclamation point.

Billy Mays was the face of many well known and fine products:

If you haven’t been following the Perez Hilton/Black Eyed Peas drama, I applaud you. If, like us, you’ve been unabled to avoid it, consider snagging you’ll appreciate this ballerific t-shirt from Jared Moraitis:

The Chinese Grass Mud Horse

A few months late, but if you haven’t already caught this in the New York Times or this month’s Wired magazine, it is an already infamous Chinese internet censorship protest video (everything sounds like a dirty word in Chinese, read the captions).

3:13PM: the television news media (CNN, FOX, MSNBC) has yet to officially state that Michael Jackson is dead. Jackson was not breathing when he was rushed to the UCLA Medical Center at 12:26PM today, in a state of cardiac arrest.

3:15PM: L.A. Times now states that doctors have pronounced Michael Jackson dead.

3:30PM: CNN television news announces that Michael Jackson is dead. Suck it CNN! You’re 15 minutes behind!

NOTE: Michael Jackson is declared only “99% dead” – his nose was already declared legally dead over 7 years ago.

It’s going to be years before we can giggle again at the term “anal cancer.”

A shitty way to die (sorry . . . too soon).
