God is apparently furious that Creed got back together. That's the only reason I can find that 4 rather famous people would be dead in a week.

Okay, Ed McMahon didn't really impact me much.

Farrah Fawcett was going to die at some point, we all knew that.

Michael Jackson was a shocker, but kinda makes sense if he really was hooked on those painkillers.

BILLY FUCKING MAYS? THAT is unexcusable. Yes, it's easy to make fun of his pitch style, with how over-the-top he was, but dammit it WORKED. We all know who Billy Mays was, and we all know at least one of the products he supported. Any way you slice it, he did exactly what a salesman needs to do. The fact that he also basically lived "the American Dream" of coming from a poorer background and made it huge through his own skill and an ounce of luck... he was truly a great man that all bearded folks should look up to.

R.I.P. Billy Mays... you may be gone, but this beard will never forget!

Geez why did Billy Mays have to die right now? I was always thinking he would be selling stuff at age 80 and still yelling from the top of his lungs.

R.I.P. Billy Mays. I will always remember your oxiclean detergent commercials.

Billy Mays' autopsy shows he died of heart disease, coroner says - Los Angeles Times

Coroner is saying he died of a heart attack, could be several weeks before they know the exact cause.
