The Grim Reaper sure has been busy lately. It's being reported that Mays was hit in the head last night during a hard landing of a US Air flight landing in Tampa. I'm wondering if it was something along the same line as Natasha Richardson.
Meanwhile the Cronkite family has released a statement:

"In order to dispel false rumors, Walter Cronkite's family wants it known that he has apparently suffered for some years with cerebrovascular disease and he is not expected to recuperate. He is resting comfortably at home with family, friends, and a wonderful medical team. We thank you for your prayers and good wishes."

I was shocked to hear this one too. Billy must have sold more products than anyone else on TV. I just saw him on TV recently, so this is very strange. TV commercials won't be the same without him.

That's crazy. I saw him on Conan just the other day.

I think this is so sad...Like Jackson, he wasn't very old at all.

He's the OxyClean guy

That'll learn 'im! Should never try to make infomercials for Jacko's ablums.
