    The story now is that he wasn't wearing his seat-belt during the rough landing....

      I wonder if perhaps a clot or something happened in the accident and just didn't kill him until later? Maybe some kind of hemorrhage or somthing that didn't cause immediate death. Sad no matter what the cause though...

        You may be talking about the press or in the words of Jules in Pulp Fiction the proverbial "Word around the campfire", but as far as this thread is concerned, the overwhelming sentiment is that while the commercials were annoying as hell, Billy was a good Dude.

            I believe that the op was a slight from MJ fans here about the percieved slights his thread recieved concerning his alleged behaviors and had nothing to do with Billy mays here
            Lo there do I see my Father.
            Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
            Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
            Lo they do call me.
            They bid me take my place among them.
            In the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.

                It was stated today that Bill had Heart disease. I still wonder if the rough landing could have hastened his passing.
