Someone is pretending that Bill Cosby has died on Youtube/Google Video

Here's a little bizarrity I stumbled across on Google Video. It's a video memorial for Bill Cosby posted on January 15th:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...63927059&hl=en

The problem is Bill Cosby isn't dead. He isn't even sick.

According to MyFox 29 in Philadelphia Cosby was at a peace march put on by "Men united for a better Philadelphia" on the day the video was posted:

Plus even if they were wrong (Fox was about Iraq so it could happen) and Cosby did die then he must have risen from the dead a few days later to raise 2.5 million in scholarships at Wesleyan University by doing benifit concert at the Pierre Hotel in New York City according to Wesleyan's own newsletter. Jesus Christ!

I'm baffled why someone would go to the trouble to make a fake memorial to somebody who is still alive and well.

If it's on the internet, it must be true.

I heard he mixed Pop Rocks with Jello Pudding and his stomach exploded.

I'm not willing to completely discount that possibility that Bill Cosby could be Jesus Christ rising from the dead to do good deeds again.

That is one of things I truly hate with Youtube. Everyone is trying to get attention and will do/say anything to get people to watch their clips. Ever since Lonelygirl15 got so popular (in her own mind anyway) everyone is trying to get famous...

That's the big reason I linked to the Google Video version since there's no author listed unlike the YouTube one where it's his only video IIRC.

Making a mock up like that about Bill Cosby just seems like a low blow since he's old and all and he's getting to that age where he might just die anytime

Maybe Mortimer Ichabod Marker should write a eulogy
