| 64. He beat me by 1 minute. Same age as michael too |

This is going to get 50 year old paranoid. Was always the uplifting sort. Really spooky, I just bumped into his show on Discovery this morning. This would be in CST time. So not sure what out it might have been. 9 or 10am?? I prefer his commercials, but indeed he helped inventors come out. Best invention I always loved that Billy had nothing to do with. the USB can coolers.  Sure they can heat now, but thats easy. Cooling stuff off isn't. But we have Oxy Clean and Orange Glo around the house
