Got an update from the fellas at work today. It appears California will cremate MJ, many engineers and scientists will be on hand to recreate him from his plastic and "other" matter content into "Lego" blocks. This will allow future generations of children to reverse the anguish that many were exposed to at "The Ranch". Marketing is still toying with the thrilling details which will certainly turn ABCs into a dancing machine, mama's pearl, touch.

I overheard a variation of this at work today. They were planning to turn it into play-doh.

I think it's probably best that he died youngish, with his deteriorating health and all. I couldn't imagine him at sixty or seventy.

Well how about respecting his grieving fans by not throwing around unproven accusations while they are trying to deal with the death of one of their idol? He's dead, it's not him you are affecting with these accusations.

I just LOVE how Jesse Jackson and Al "Lets bring race into everything" Sharpton didn't waste any time jumping into the media trying to steal the show.. Especially Sharpton. HE'S a racist. He makes everything about race, when many times it has nothing to do with it.. Both are kinda media whores.

I just love how the media hounded him daily yet do nothing but pay tribute to him when he dies. It was very similiar to Princess Diana. The paparazzi were chasing her at the time of her death and they were all "We loved her so much" when she died. Wtf? You didn't love her, she enabled you to have a job and you loved that enough to harass her and make a career out of stalking her.

Here, they're all paying tribute to him and the star he was etc. Yet, they made money ridiculing him, turning some serious charges into a circus act and then jumping all over it the second time 'round. The hypocrisy of it all sickens me. Like or dislike him, but don't say you did when you did not, and use him as a cash-cow for your newspaper and/or channel/website. Even the pics they post now are all "good" pics of him. They're older, when his face didn't look so odd. But, they had no problem putting them up for the last 10 years and then, in the same breath they say how much of an icon he was.

This is a great post Spirit warrior, summed up the media hypocrisy very well.

It's all fun and games until someone loses a life.

RIP MJ.

BRAVO!


MJ @ 21 years young.


MJ @ 29.


Michael Jackson testifies in Santa Barbara County Superior Court, on the 13th of November, 2002.

An icon to some, "Wacko-Jacko" to others.
