Jesus, what the hell is going on? Celebrities are dropping like flies! :-({|=

I liked his commercials, he seemed like a nice, honest guy. ](*,)

Just at the point where Mz. Majors passed (as #2 after MJ), the local discussion was "Who's next?  These things come in threes".  BM is #3.

Don't forget Farrah Fawcett. This time they come in fours, it seems.

I'm with guyjin on this one. But you gotta admit...you heard that guy's voice for long enough, you sure didn't forget the product he was pushing.

How timely, I just read his interview in Playboy.  He sure sounded like a slick-willie huckster, but an honest one that would admittedly sell anything to make a buck.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I actually was bummed by this news. I've watched 3 episdoes of "Pitchmen" and, dare I say, have enjoyed watching them. It's a neat show.

I know, I know....

To make matters even worse, I actually use OxyClean when doing the wash. I got a friggin' huge box of that stuff from Costco. I never thought I'd actually be using anything from an infomercial.

What's next in my downward slide to Sludgeville?

OxyClean is legit though.  Even the Arm & Hammer baking soda company is endorsing it.

That said, I'm actually gonna miss Mays.  He may had been obnoxious but he was helluva entertaining in his infomercials.

Now God and Jesus will know the stain fighting power of OxyClean! 8)
