It is a shame, only 50 years old. Awaiting his third hip replacement? I can't help but wonder if that bop on the head exacerbated some existing condition.

Sure, professionally he was loud, obnoxious and the products he hawked certainly would never work like he claimed but I still feel bad for him and of course, his family.

Coincidence. Since approximately 150,000 to 155,000 thousand human beings die every day, it's only logical that in a world where people are increasingly famous for simply existing that a few more of the dead will be more or less "famous."

I heard that when they came to pick him up in the wagon, and were wheeling him out the door, he suddenly jumped and yelled, "But wait!"
