Michael Jackson Dead

[slick]

You know, I feel bad for the family and everyone else concerned. I've never been a fan of Michael Jackson although I recognize that he had a talent that no one else has or ever will have. It will be years before they let him RIP.

That being said, I'm sick of hearing about him already and it's only be over a week. I think I'll turn my attention to the food channel.

you know i guess we all do get sick of hearing about him, but in some ways it keeps his memory alive longer, what i mean by that is ,someone dies and then you don't hear about them again, seems like they are simply forgotten so quickly, although i know some of it is not good things we are hearing, i still find it interesting, he was a complex individual it seems, and i actually want to know more about him.

As for people making money out of his death, well there is always someone out there ready to make a quick buck,that's life i guess, but yes it is somewhat distastful i guess, but then the fans are the people who will buy the t shirts, and i am sure they are more than happy that they are available, i would be if i were a fan, anyhow thats my take on it.

At the end of the day, people wouldn't produce/sell stuff if people wouldn't buy it! Same is true of the media. Everyone complains but it's supply and demand on it's most basic level. If the public didn't demand it, there would be no market. You can't have it both ways. RIP MJ.

My grandson is watching, so I glance at it when I walk by, or in between chores. Like him or not, it's still sad. Unfortunately MJ played with fire and paid the ultimate price. I wonder how many of his doctors will end up losing their license over this? I hope MJ paid them well and made it worth their while, since whoever administered whatever caused his death, will have that on his conscience, and will have to live with it for the rest of his life.
