Michael Jackson and Farrah died today


My wife just told me that Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett died today with Ed Mc Mahon yesterday there's the 3.

I guess Walter Cronkite is in bad shape as well.

I forget. What was it exactly that Michael Jackson was found guilty of?

How can you say that? Regardless of how you feel about someone. He has family that loved him and they are grieving a lose and that is what you say? No decent human would say that.

I dunno. I would think that you would first need to make a determination as to whether or not anyone actually got paid off, and then the question can be asked as to whom and how much.

Re: Michael Jackson and Farrah died today


Must be celebrity envy... It is too bad they had to pass, but in the bigger scheme of things I have to ask how much did they do for me?

Nothing but entertain me, so tell me about it and move on, there are a lot bigger things to worry about...

I think the hours and hours of news coverage for Jackson who has been not well since his child molestation case is a bit too much. It shows what the problems are with this country.

O PLEASE!!!!! What about the children that live daily with the pain that this TALENTED pervert inflicted on them. What about the hurt that THESE families have endured. I wonder how THEY (these once innocent little boys) feel tonight. MAYBE like justice has finally been served.

I am sure his family grieves for him, but then again, if they are decent human beings at all, they should have grieved all along at his gross indiscretion in sharing his bed with babies and changing their lives forever.

Sorry - you can spew all the rhetoric and and sympathetical psychobable you wish. In the end - A child molester has received his just desserts.

Good Riddens Michael Jackson.

I don't have TV in the truck, so fortunately I'm missing all the coverage.

Re: Michael Jackson and Farrah died today


I think Michael Jackson died a few decades ago as far as whoever/whatever the real Michael Jackson was. Such a big deal is made over these two while the thousands of others who also died today aren't mentioned or remembered at all other than by family and friends. It's sad to me that we've pushed celebrity to the point where rather than a 2 minute mention in the news it turns into a 2 hours production. Another of many problems it seems.
