How does one get so excited about cheap household products without being on coke?

yep,the drug report didnt surprise me....very few people die from heart disease alone at age 50,there is usually some other factor involved at that age.

I guess now we know that all that excitement over the total sh!t he sold wasnt belief in the products after all but good ole dope--it's the American way.

Some of the stuff that Billy Mays promoted was pretty good. Some turned out to be crap. Oh well, whatever gives you money for "nose candy".

If he didn't abuse the pills,then he didn't die from the pills.Cocaine is very bad for the heart.He was too old to be doing cocaine.He sure looked like he always had alot of energy!

Every decision will either have a consequence or a reward. This is so sad.

People do die from heart attacks early, if they have a genetic disorder at birth. But that is in a small percentage. Some of the products as one person said was pretty good. Others well that is advertising.

Amazing how fast the autopsy report came back on Mays but Michael Jackson's is still a mystery!

The pain pills were supposedly for a bad hip he had.....usually pain pills taken as directed wont explode your heart like cocaine will...coke puts your heart in overdrive making it run like a jack hammer....a bad deal if you already got hypertension.

come on guys the stuff he sold was pure garbage none of us needed.

take the awesome auger....they already had those years ago to stir paint with and it aint gonna dig out no tree roots,youd snap a wrist the first real tree root you tried to work out with that thing.and youll notice the ground they were working in was loose fluffy dirt.try that auger in clay and see how long that little plastic drill lasted.

and how many maids you gonna see with cleaning pads on their feet sliding around homes? repairman sticking tools on themselves with magnets?

Silly useless junk that Mays made thousands of gullible souls think they couldnt live without... BUT the man who sold Mays on the wonders of cocaine was even a better pitchman than Mays was.

Maybe people will think twice before they do coke when there 50!Man,it speeds up your heart and any heartbeat over 120 beats per minute,can put you right in cardiac arrest.
