Billy!


Billy Mays, one of America's great, died Sunday, he was 50.

I became a fan of Billy back in his OxiClean days, The product amazed me because, during his "Wow!" demo, I could never figure out where all that red dye went when Billy dumped the OxiClean in the fish bowl. He went on to enlighten us with the Awesome Auger, Zorbeez, Mighty Putty and countless other must have products.

This Spring Billy and Anthony Sullivan invited the T.V. viewer behind the scenes of their world on The Discovery Channel's Pitchmen. It was awesome and I was an instant fan.

Last night I read his son "Little" Billy had requested fans wear a blue shirt today in memory of his father.
