    Twitter just exploded[^]; I'm measuring about 9000 Michael Jackson-related tweets every 3 seconds.

        It's official. KTLA reports that LAPD has confirmed his death. The American Institute of Cosmetic Surgery has declared a week of mourning...

        Now the question is, will St. Peter tell to Michael Jackson to Beat It?

            Maybe it is just a publicity stunt. Douglas Adams is spending some years dead for tax reasons.

                          Since Michael Jackson was 99% plastic, he will be melted down and molded into legos so that children can play with him for a change.

                            Oh crap... Now we're going to have to see sightings of him at Walmart in the tabloid headlines while trying to buy groceries. That just puts me off lunch altogether. X|

                              Well plainly no one here is a major MJ fan. So therefore let the jokes in very poor taste proceed. Here's a classic: Only in America can an abused little black kid grow up to be a rich white woman. Then there was the one about him doing a cover of the Elton John classic, singing: " Don't let your son, go down on me ..."

                              I just love Koalas - they go great with Bacon.

                                Was he ever alive? Since childhood, I mean... Maybe he died in surgery during his first nosejob, and everything since has been attributable to a bionic replacement part. That would explain a lot of things, given the state of the art in bionics back then... I'm not aggrieved in the least at his passing - an overdue end to a bad piece of work. But I am pissed at the waste of a born talent of such magnitude. As a child he was a credit to his race and his generation, and did much to further the cause of both. A brilliantly talented young man, he practically defined the 'music video' genre, and I think he was possibly responsible for the success of MTV. What more could a young black man in America ask of life? Except, perhaps, to be white... What a terrible waste - not now, but then. I never liked his music, I never liked his style, but I recognize genius when I see it and I'm glad to have seen him in his prime. May he rest in peace, at long last.:rose:

                                  I heard that he's going to be cremated on a pyre of exploding Pepsi cans - no word yet on the music for the funeral service...
