This is all very weird.

You are right! I forgot

about David Carradine. This is 5 now. My heart goes out to their families.
Someone mentioned Patrick Swayze. I am afraid of that too. Such a sad, sad month.

It's just very shocking. Some of these were expected, but several were just out of nowhere. I feel sad for all of these families.

That is too weird. Sounds like Bob Crane with Hogans Heroes. I feel so sorry for all of these families.

I have to agree. Billy Mays was a part of everyone's life I think. Everyday I smiled when I heard "Hi, Billy Mays here." I also loved to watch his show, he was a funny guy and it was nice to see his off tv personality.

Discovery will be airing an all day Pitchmen marathon on Wednesday and all kinds of Billy Mays clips and infomercials.

I'll miss you Billy! I am praying for your wife, daughter, and of course little Billy.

*cries*

Fred Travolina died yesterday, too. He was a very funny man who did spot on great impressions of people, such as Frank Sinatra, who told everyone to go see him do himself. He was 66, I believe.

Oh my! I just looked him up and he died of Hodgkin's lymphoma and yes, he was 66. Too many people dying. So, So sad.
