You'd think it was Ron Popeil

For 3 days now the news has been saturated with reports on the death of huckster Billy Mays.

I recall when first I heard the news on the radio; "T.V. pitchman Billy Mays Dyes" , I thought 'big deal, that's not news! it's obvious to anyone that that's not his real hair color'.
Then I realized they spoke of his death.My attitude then switched to 'big deal, he's no Ron Popeil.'But enough already, I ,like the state-run media, have spent far too much time on this trivial "news" matter.
