You are correct. Anyone who noticed the child abuse witch hunts of the 80s/90s smelled a Nifong rat a mile away when those those grifters filed those phony charges. They thought they could con a big settlement from the freak. That trial was when I realized that Sean Hannity is a total retard.

I don’t think he was even sexually functioning, let alone a horrible sexual predator.

He could’ve been a real pop hack, but remained creative. There’s a million ideas that we will never see now. I don’t like the comparisons to Elvis. Elvis was a talented dumb guy. MJ wrote 100 great tunes.

RIP

Jackson wrote the songs. Some people think Jones’ production on Jackson’s records was too slick.

If they found positive toxicology results as the likely cause, they will try to determine whether caused by therapeutic, accidental or self inflicted OD.

Or murder.

Interesting that L Ron Hubbard didn't get an autopsy, and was promptly cremated, in accordance with scientology beliefs (Which, BTW, came as a total surprise to the rest of us in scientology). He was under the care of the now deceased Dr Gene Denk.

Dead men tell no tales...

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The tard party is really PO’d that Fawcett, rest her soul, and freak-man died both on the same day.

This pushed Sanford out of the news cycle and they were hoping for weeks of millage outta that one.

I was NEVER a fan of this metrosexual and his so-called “music” centered around an obsession with grabbing his crotch, however it looks like he turned out to be useful indeed.

Not really.

But I did it anyway.

Before Thriller, ‘Off the Wall’ was pretty popular. And ‘Bad’ certainly was. He was probably the most famous person on Earth.

Overall, he was probably the greatest musical performer of all time. Rest In Peace. Much like other great artists, he was great but tragically a head case.

I agree.

He left a family. Respect is first most.

Exactly. The man was an emotional and sexual cripple and someone to be pitied. It’s such a shame. He had incredible talent.

He was so cute back in his normal days.

This is my favorite MJ photo ever. He was a beautiful young black man then, with normal eyes, eyebrows, hair, nose and lips:

An Elvis license plate--yowser--that's a serious collector's item. I grew to enjoy Elvis' music more as I got older.

Did I mention seeing Elvis at the grocery store last week?

That would certainly be a matter of personal taste now, wouldn’t it.

Some people are attracted to effete men wearing eyeliner and makeup who sing in high girlish falsetto voices and can’t sing a song without grabbing their crotches repeatedly.

What ever blows your dress up.

I found the funniest t shirt several years ago. It was announcing the Elvis tour 1990-1991. Instead of concert venues, it had sightings. “At a Burger King in Kalamazoo, Michigan” and on and on. Apparently Lisa and the estate put the stop to that.

There was already the first reported dead Michael Jackson sighting here. A man claimed he saw the King of Pop at the Macy's Boys Dept. Apparently he was there because he saw a sign that said "Boys Pants, Half Off."

((((rimshot))))

Thank you very much, I'll be here all week. Don't forget to tip your bartenders and waitresses.

I was at the Victory Tour concert stop at RFK Stadium in Washington, D. C. in 1984. I had a blast. Great music back then.
