Have any of you noticed, that even though the guy is DEAD they keep showing his commercials?
I mean, hiw COLD is that?
I just heard one on the TV as i was sitting here, and i just HAD to write.
Last night we were watching TV, and he comes on to pitch some phone gadget that plays your cell phone through your car speakers. I do a pretty mean imitation of him, so i start chiming in "Even though I'm dead, i STILL use this jack! It even works when your 6 feet under! The groundhogs and earthworms can even get your calls!"
I just couldn't HELP myself......my wife was laughing and shaking her head....

Way to go Cheesey! Even the dearly beloved passed away aren't safe from you. Every time I hear his name or see a commercial I think of OxyClean.
Anyone for a Weenie Roast?

LOL! "OXYCLEAN!"
"Never have a dirty ox again, use OXyclean! Guarenteed to keep your ox showroom clean! Your neighbors will be envious!"

"John......how come OUR ox never looks as good as Billiy's???"
"Cause he uses OXYCLEAN!!!"

When I see these commercials, it just makes me think of death and how sudden it can come. Very unfortunate.

They still show one of his commercial thingies here, as well. No one actually knows who he is or that he has passed away here, though. It's some kind of gel you put on your car to make scratches dissappear.

Yup....fact is....all of us will have that happen to us some day.
Thats why i prefer to try to find anything funny i can. Otherwise, it can be quite depressing. Believe me, i have lost WAY too many loved ones in my own life. You either learn how to cope with it, or get depressed and go nuts. You can sit and think about death, which WILL come some day, or learn to live each day as it comes. As close as i came to "buying the farm" last February, i was more concerned about those i would be leaving behind instead of what was happening to me. I was going nuts trying to figure out how to let the people on here know what was going on. Had i not had Julie's phone number, i would have been worried that i was gonna die, and no one here would know what happened. Crazy, hey?

I think it's pretty cool actually. Billy Mays had a wife and young children. It's not every family that gets to profit from their father's/husband's work after his death. Mays' accomplishments are still putting food on his family's table. That's something to be proud of.

Yeah when I was one of his commercials after he was gone I was a bit surprised. (It was only a week or two later) but I figured that MOMMA wanted the show to go on.

I don't think alot of people know that cocaine was found in his system. I don't know how much that may have contributed to his death.
It's a shame for his family.

dfosterf (3h) : Feelin' pfowish can't find the sun. No big deal, will drag a laptop out when the time comes
Zero2Cool (4h) : if you're on mobile, open the menu and its the "sun" icon
dfosterf (4h) : Can't find the toggle, lol
dfosterf (4h) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .
Zero2Cool (4h) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.
dfosterf (4h) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes
dfosterf (5h) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same
dfosterf (5h) : *Friday*
dfosterf (5h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy
dfosterf (5h) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)
dfosterf (5h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from
dfosterf (5h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy
Zero2Cool (5h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!
dfosterf (5h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40
dfosterf (5h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in
packerfanoutwest (5h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?
beast (5h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...
beast (5h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based
beast (5h) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based
beast (5h) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?
dfosterf (6h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (6h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

beast (12h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...
dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
