Way... just read the news story about it. Again I say, I'm glad I'm not famous. The cosmos seems to have it out for celebrities right now.

Seemed like a friendly enough guy when he shouted the benefits of Oxi Clean at me in the middle of the night, waking me from a dead sleep.

laughing.gif I know what you mean. I can't stand infomercials and loud commercials. I usually have the TV on all night, but I tend to leave it on a news station. Usually the only bad thing there is the occassional waking in a start, sitting straight up in bed, yelling "VOICE OF SATAN!" only to discover it is just a random Congress-person in a news clip.

thats just it I think thats why this guy was so good at what he did- he was like gently shout reasoning. he believed it. it was like an amazing trick ala I am stabbing you in the ear but isn't the blade smooth and made of space-age polimers that will clean the blood from your ears that my voice made bleed!!!!!!!!!biggrin

lmao.gif Exactly! He claimed to truly believe in every product that he schilled for. In the story on MSNBC's website, it said that he handed out Oxi Clean to all of the guests at his wedding, and visitors to his home always left with Orange Glo and other stuff.

One would think they could give him a day off at least for his own autopsy.
