Not Even Death Stops Billy Mays
For everyone who's still getting creeped out when they turn on the TV and see now-dead pitchman Billy Mays selling things, you're in luck - more commercials are coming! Did I say luck, I meant terror. You're in terror:
"Just stretch, wrap and it fuses fast," says Mays, demonstrating a product called Mighty Tape on a kitchen drain pipe in the new commercial. Moments later, he's seen, still wearing his signature sport shirt and khaki slacks but accessorized with scuba gear, as he repairs a hole in another diver's air hose underwater using Mighty Tape.

The commercial will begin airing July 20. Mays' advertising for other products in the Mighty brand line returned to the air earlier this week. The commercials were pulled after Mays' death June 28 of an apparent heart attack. (AP)

Yes, the company respected the death of Billy Mays just long enough to shock people when they threw those commercials back up. Shock people into buying the crap, though? Only time will tell.
"Our feeling is, everyone wants to have Billy go on," said Bill McAlister, president of Media Enterprises, a sales and marketing company based in Trevose, Penn. "This is what he would have wanted."
Act now, and we can start pimping out all the recently dead celebrities for our amusement and profit. Farah Fawcett will sell poster glue, Ed McMahon can help promote Jimmy Fallon. And if you call within the next 15 minutes, we will kill your soul by having Michael Jackson sell individual gloves, absolutely free. It's the bargain of a lifetime!

Deceased? We Got a Product to Help with That!
Infomerical pitchman and familiar face Billy Mays died yesterday. The dude, who was known for selling products such as Orange Glo and OxiClean, was found dead by his wife Deborah Mays at their home in Tampa, Florida.
“Although Billy lived a public life, we don’t anticipate making any public statements over the next couple of days,” Mrs. Mays said in a statement on Sunday. “Our family asks that you respect our privacy during these difficult times.”
Billy had just had an incident on an airplane on Saturday that may or may not be related to his death... It probably did. Airplanes suck:
“Just had a close call landing in Tampa. The tires blew out upon landing. Stuck in the plane on the runway. You can always count on US Air," Billy tweeted.

He was later interviewed by a Florida radio station where he said, "All of a sudden as we hit, you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. (Something) hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."

I'm sure Billy Mays is now in Heaven, trying to sell OxiClean to St. Peter: "Hey there, oh boy do you have some rusty gates. I got a product to make'em shine again. Nothing says, "Welcome to Eternity" better than shining gates." That, or he's now in hell... you know, for having a beard - it's a telltale sign of evil. Just look at Fidel Castro or Osama Bin Laden or Saddam Hussein or Joan Rivers... The world's most evil men, all with beards. I wonder what Billy did with that Orange Glo behind closed doors? If you think I'm implying he sodomized children and puppies, you sir, are correct.
