Billy Mays Coke Death

Ok. News out today. Billy Mays' death attributed to cocaine use.

Wow. (Stated in an anti-climactic, bemused sort of way).

Is anyone really surprised by this?

The guy was the definition of HYPER. If you looked it up in the dictionary, you'd see a picture of him. Hello people!

Sad about the situation and the grief his family is going through but really folks...it should not come as any surprise.

Yet another affirmation for the much slower fatality rate for my drug of choice: alcohol. It too will get you but it takes a long time and if you time your binges right, your organs have time to recoup between your jags. It's a much more user-friendly and adjustable way to bid thee farewell to the world.

So on that note, cheers Mr. Mays, a toast to your contribution to the marketing business of the world...

For all that's worth but not a penny more because I acted NOW and I want my early bird discount!
