For the past few days I've been wondering if I'm a bad person for feeling more of a loss for Billy Mays than for Farrah Fawcett or Michael Jackson. I realized I'm not as Mr. Mays was a "real" person who achieved fame for actually being honest [even though he was a "pitchman" the reality, at least as I saw it, was that he believed in the products]

It's not that FF or MJ weren't honest, it was more that a "regular" guy became something of a celebrity. Kinda like if Dave Bryce hit big time celebrity most of us would be pulling for him.

I hope to hell they figure out why he passed, and I hope to hell that if the airline was responsible they compensate the family properly. From what I understand he had young children, and something about what he portrayed in his demeanor on TV spoke to me that he was not only a hustler, but also someone with a sense of humor / irony who would [in my perception as a viewer] might have been a great father.

RIP
