    I didn't watch the memorial service. But, I have read a handful of comments on this thread and have seen a couple random photos of the family at the service. Someone mentioned the silver glove being a nice little homage to Michael, seems like I saw Ken Griffey Jr wore a single glove during a baseball game recently, too. Anyway, my thought is that the sunglasses inside might have been a kind of a Michael thing (maybe even a Jackson family thing), too.

    The only reason I say that is because it didn't strike me as bizarre at all that they were wearing shades. I may not have known immediately that they were indoors, though...hmm...

    I know that there's a lot more coverage of his death than even other celebrities, but I honestly haven't felt completely saturated with it. I don't watch a lot of tv or listen to or read the news anyway, but with some events or happenings, I simply can't help but hear it. I felt a bit overwhelmed right at first, because it didn't matter what radio station I had it on, that's what they were talking about. But, that was only for the first few days that I felt I had to either change the station or turn the radio off completely.

    I don't know, I just hope the man finally has some peace of mind and heart.

    Now Joe Jackson is saying that he believes there was FOUL play reguarding to Michael's death.. yeah right, are you serious? He alone destroyed his childhood & the rest of his life to who he had become and the cause of the media, etc.

    Another MJ tidbit?

    I was at a local airshow near my house and the LA County Sheriff's flew their helicopter in.....This was the same helicopter they used to move his body from the hospital!

    His body was released that P.M. and the police/authorities were afraid that the people would try to get in the way of the coroner's van to get close to the body.

    They landed the chopper on the roof of the building and took the body up to the top floor, then flew it to the coroner's office.

    That really irked me, not for the cost - They had his body wrapped in a white sheet, strapped in a litter - It was very cold and impersonal.

    The local stations followed the chopper and made it into a 'breaking news story'.

    The LASD chopper is the same one they have flown for years, mostly to p/u hikers and guys that crash in the canyons.

    Now there's a lot of talk on the net that LaToya Jackson claims it was murder!?

    I really wonder if we will ever learn the truth, but sure I'm not surprised that eventually these conspiracy theories have been brought up!
