I just heard that Jeff Goldblum is dead. Anyone hear anything on this? (And yes, Franco is still dead)

I have to agree. It was all about money, wasn’t it?

The American media will obsess on Michael Jackster for at least a week.

At least, but if LAPD finds something interesting, get ready for a month or longer of this.

LAPD is saying 230 pm he was pronounced dead, LAPD Robbery Homicide is currently handling the death investigation, the coroner now has possession of the body.

LAPD says robbery homicide is involved as routine...LAPD, has no other comments due to the high profile....

Strange as it may seem, I’m more upset over Michael’s death than Farrah’s.

I just always felt sad for him, like he was a lost soul adrift and looking for something he’d never find.

Farrah was just a mediocre actress who at least seemed to have a semi-happy, decent life. At least that’s more than some people (like Jackson) get.

Despite all his personal troubles, Michael Jackson was an EXTREMELY talented singer who had astonishing success from the Jackson 5 days to the late 1980's. At his artistic zenith with Thriller, Jackson co-created with Quincy Jones great songs from almost that entire album!

Rest in peace, MJ. Your passing is truly untimely.

It is routine for them to investigate, but what was interesting is the comment the doctors would not sign the death certificate, and requested LAPDs assistance....

maybe a drug overdose that led to heart attack? Pain killer OD maybe? Painkillers and booze? time will tell. Way back around the time the MJ news broke this afternoon someone said that his heart attack was caused by a severe Electrolyte imbalance. The body salts. Who knows?

Fred Astaire said he was one of the best dancers he’d ever seen. He was admired by a larger group of people than just about any popular artist in history. Maybe Charlie Chaplin comes closest. And he’s another one who had accusations of pedophillia.

“They’ll look hard at this due to insurance death policies, debt issues, and drugs, illegal and prescription drugs.”

Plural on policies for sure. I wonder what the event organizers got on him.

****Mark Sanford gets his Gary Condit moment.****

It's sad that Michael Jackson died but I did think about how this gave Sanford a media break if you will. You know the CNN amd especially MSNBC's would yapp about Sanford endlessly. This will cause them to talk about MJ.
