Yeah, I expect Conan to talk about this tomorrow. It was quite a shock when I read that he died.

What's with all these random celebrity deaths? images/smilies/blink.gif

According to CNN they are considering a possible connection to some luggage that fell and hit him in the head yesterday on a United Airlines flight.

Still, I am really shocked and upset to find out this happened. Pitchmen was starting to become one of my favorite shows.

RIP.

if i see someone walking around with a black notebook, i'm going to stay well out of that persons way and if he does ask for my name... i'll make sure i'll give one of the Daily Mail reporter's name.

as for other celebritries dying... i'm more surprised that Amy Winehouse has managed to outlive most anyway.

Yeah, I know. I was just pointing out the pitchman part of it (its kind of sad when you realize one of his last appearances was shilling for Cash4Gold during the Super Bowl).
