Well, I would never consider Mays to be anywhere near the same league as Ed, MJ or Farah. I always had to turn off the sound whenever his commercials were on. RIP Mays.

No I don't consider Mays to have been in the same league as Ed, MJ, or Farrah either, and I assumed that's why Icon mentioned the "rule of 3" (Starting) all over again.

I do know if I was the ShamWow guy, I'd be sweatin bullets right about now

Too bad Chrysler never used him to sell Crossfires.

"You get all three: the Mighty Putty, Zorbees, and OxiClean. But wait! If you call within the next hour we'll throw in a new Chrysler Crossfire. That's right, you get the Mighty Putty, the Zorbees, the OxiClean, and the Crossfire all for $24.95 plus shipping and handling."

Karl looked like an old boot for most of his life,

Not a real leading man,

But his character performance was good stuff, He will be missed.
