Celebrity Deaths..

So I initially heard the news that Jeff Goldblum, Michael Jackson, and (today) Billy Mays died. However, the names didn't sink in except of course, Michael Jackson. I'm still not sure what to think of that....

Then, I googled the other 2 names (since they sounded familiar) and realized who they were.

= Jeff Goldblum, aka new guy on the CSI shows and one of the funniest characters, if not THE funniest, in Jurassic Park. That totally threw me for a loop...he's actually dead????

= "Hi, Billy Mays here for Oxy-Clean!" Yep, I couldn't put the name with a face till I found a news article on Billy Mays. The infomercial guy....that's hard to take too!

Honestly, I'm sure no one will really care that they died in 10, 15, or more years from now. Cept me. The first thought that crossed my mind was that "my kids will never get to see the man from Jurassic park OR the excited guy from the infomercials except in old commercials and movies...." How sad is it that the next generation misses out on such greatness??
