You know, of course, that just before his death, he'd been using a Nokia phone, and poking around on a 'puter with a
Linux operating system.

You okay, Elvid? Surely this should have first prompted you to link to some clip from the famous SNL "Buckwheat Is Dead" sketch... I mean, talk
about eternal verities...
"I Nub Nou!"" |

Feck, you'd think he was John Lennon or something...
Clearly, though, his death is a momentous event as is demonstrated by the outpouring of grief from such towering cultural icons as Beyonce, Jane Fonda, Lisa Marie Presley, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lance Armstrong and Justin Timberlake...link |

Never liked his music, think he molested children. Hence...I don't give a fuck about him.
Hats for bats. Keep bats warm. Gracias.

Amazing how a freak can knock what is happening in Iran off the front pages.

I don't know how he can be called fashion trendsetter. Other than Halloween and impersonators nobody dressed up like him and nobody but the superrich could
afford those exclusive outfits.

...interesting gem that I heard last night....$5,000 per month at one drugstore is one hell of a lot of aspirin
http://news.superiorpics.com/2007/01/13/JACKSON_SUED_BY_DRUGSTORE_TO_THE_STARS.html The owners of famous Beverly Hills drugstore Mickey Fine Pharmacy claim they had an oral bill-paying agreement with Jackson, but the King of Pop still owes them over $100,000 (GBP51,300). The pharmacists allege Jackson paid his last bill almost two years ago (05), and now they want him to pay up in full. According to documents filed in Los Angeles and obtained by website TMZ.com, the pharmacy made "repeated requests for payment." The drugstore owners are asking for the $101,926 (GBP52,270) they claim they are owed, plus court costs. |

...sorry, W. of E., forgot about that best insight ever on media celebrity death coverage....no footage up on Youtube, we'll have to deal with a transcript
of the script...

"Hey Mr. Wheat!"
...btw, #1 "musical moment" in Michael Jackson's career? Eddie Van Halen's guitar solo on "Beat It". That would make it someone else's, I guess. "Human Nature" was a pretty good ballad too...Miles Davis did a great cover of it. |
