Wow this is so strange.

He was truly at the top of his career, and one of the best examples of an american entrepreneur, and the only worthy replacement for Ron Poppeil, who strangely enough outlived him. I have great respect for this man.

RIP BM

By the way, in case you've missed it, he was in a great reality show on Discovery called Pitchmen. I hope they have a marathon this weekend or something.

That about sums up how I feel. He had a passion for his profession and was good at it. I was really starting to like "Pitchmen," even though I generally find infomercials to be annoying. Of the two 50 year olds that have passed recently, for some reason, I'm more shocked and "upset" by Billy's death.

And the beard.. always perfect. He must have spent an hour on it each morning.

They're saying now that a heart attack got him.

I was surprised to learn this, I didn't take him to be a cocaine user.

He didn't remind you of a 1980's Robin Williams?

I just got my first shamwow yesterday, and I understand why he loved it so much. It may be the coolest product that I've ever seen.

Shamwow's spokesperson is Vince. Not Billy.
