    Mind you, I actually saw some of his police flims and one or two with Burt Lancaster.
    I think I remember his big nose

    Not going to disagree with you. His products may have been okay, he just could never convince me to part with my money for them.

    I got some of the Hercules hooks from my father in law, and they work pretty good. I never needed any of the other stuff he sold. I do, however, want some of the stuff they've shown on "Pitchmen" if it ever comes out mass marketed.

    I reckon that we will see more of the "Sham-Wow" guy now....

    Not until he gets over the whole "Guy who beat the crap out of a hooker" wrap. His career ended in a flurry of fists and blood.

    Oh mercy, here's hoping we don't. What a douche nozzle....I wonder if the shamwow was super absorbent enough to soak up his blood after that hooker bit his tongue.

    This is new to me! I have never heard of anything concerning his problems with the hookers. I don't even know his name, so if anyone can steer me in the right direction, I would like to read and enlighten myself on his activities outside the shamwow world. He is irritating though....

    The only two I heard of having problems with hookers were Jerry Springer and that British Actor-what was his name?

    Update. Billy Mays family are not happy campers of release of Mays’ autopsy which showed cocaine use.

    Goto:

    Billy Mays' family: Never saw signs of cocaine use - Yahoo! News

    Of course they would "disagree", and I am sure any "insurance coverage" exemptions and his "legacy" have nothing to do with their disagreements as well.

    Being that he had money falling out of his ass so insurance money not so much an issue...maybe, just MAYBE they are actually thinking of the effect this will have on his memory. Some of you are too jaded...you need a hugs and smiles day. Turn CNBC, CNN, Fox News, and Bill O'Reilly off and go out and play.

    Um, so Luke, your saying that we, his former audience-shouldn't be a bit disappointed in that he was a Coke Head?

    I find it an interesting thing but sad at the sametime-that money is wasted on that ship. I waste money on stuff some folks here would turn up their noses at-however, at least I can always get my money back on these items since they don't disappear up ones nose.

    Soon to be cases in point: Some damned great photos as well as a Knights Cross. Also attaining or about to snare-some DKiG Recipients autographs for pasting in my tqo vols put out by Patzwall and Scherzer. The most important DKiG signature for me-is from my best German/Vet friend who will also be turning 90 (God willing) in less than a month.
