If anything, Michael Jackson’s life, not his death, was tragic.

I couldn't have said it better than Jonah.

Some people are simply incredulous that their “leaders” could be so sedulous in screwing up the country...

Haven’t these cretins heard of NARCAN? Sounds like BS to me. There was supposedly his personal physician right there.

Serotonin syndrome or respirtory arrest from opiate overdose lead the differential diagnosis, IMHO. Radio, WABC-AM in NYC, is reporting an oxycontin habit, Zoloft, Xanax and an injection of demerol by his doc prior to his demise, IIRC.

In March 2005, two such specialists, Dr. Edward W. Boyer of the University of Massachusetts Medical School and Dr. Michael Shannon of Children’s Hospital Boston, noted that more than 85 percent of doctors were “unaware of the serotonin syndrome as a clinical diagnosis.”

In their review in The New England Journal of Medicine, Dr. Boyer and Dr. Shannon cited a report based on calls to poison control centers around the country in 2002 showing 7,349 cases of serotonin toxicity and 93 deaths. (In 2005, the last year for which statistics are available, 118 deaths were reported.)

very good by jonah, BUT I do NOT worhip or adore a religious icon, I appreciate the art, it makes me think, but I do not worship it. otherwise, jonah was dead on...

An icon, technically speaking, is a religious symbol deserving of reverence and adoration.

If it's stronger than aspirin, it had better be strong enough to bust its way in past my teeth.

apparently the doc went in the ambulance to the ER with him......performing cpr on him for some 45 minutes.....guess they know where he is. may not be good for him, but it looks better that he didn’t run.
