So does Billy Mays replace Ed McMahon in the "Death Comes in Threes" scenario?  Between Ed, Billy and Farrah, I have no idea who's more famous these days.  I suppose Farrah would receive same day consideration.

RIP Annoying Voice Man.

Maybe Ed is part of the first set of three, and we will hear of two more in the next day or so?

Well, all four of them were white.

Wait, I know, Farrah was female.

This story has legs according to CNN:

The 50-year-old known for his shouting OxiClean ads was pronounced dead at 7:45 a.m. The Hillsborough County medical examiner will perform an autopsy, Tampa police Lt. Brian Dugan said.

Mays was on the US Airways flight from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Tampa on Saturday that had a hard landing at Tampa International Airport when the plane's front tire blew out. There were no reported injuries on Flight 1241, US Airways told CNN.

According to a local Tampa TV station, Mays said: "All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head."

Bay News 9: Billy Mays has died
Airline spokesman Jim Olson told CNN Sunday there were no reported passenger injuries from flight 1241. The airline vowed to "cooperate fully" with authorities in the investigation.

"We were very sad to learn of Billy Mays' passing and our thoughts and prayers go out to his family," Olson said. Tampa officials say the Medical Examiner's Office expects to complete an autopsy by Monday afternoon. In a statement, Deborah Mays said that although "Billy lived a public life," the family does not plan immediate public statements about his death.

Here's the trifecta:

What's sad is that an annoying cunt like Billy Mays will get bigger headlines than the actually talented Travalena.

Yeah.  Deluise/Carradine/McMahon and Fawcet/Jackson/Mays.  Or something like that.

I've never even heard of this guy.  I guess none of his voices were as irritating as the one Billy had.

Heh, yeah, I only remember him from some time back in the 80s when he was on Hollywood Squares.  No!  I think it was the Match Game.  Not very funny, really, but still more noteworthy than an idiot like Billy Mays who is possibly even worse than the ShamWow guy.  In no sane world would this guy be a celebrity.  I'm happy to say that I didn't know his name until the day he died.

If you want to find out who's doing it, just check out who's winning big on the Dead Pool boards.  There's a lot of points in the last 5 days.
