holy, rm...i'm convinced you really don't...that anecdote (kiddo) was me talking to jr, not you...i was giving eg of the crazy English language...i told him of cavemen and he just wondered why we werent now called housemen
the half assed thing was a lame witted reference to your shower moon walk
this story is still front page news even the day after, it should be entertainment section stuff, imo...i guess i dont' know what 'tragic' means, his death was unfortunate as are many each day worldwide...i truly didnt realize he was a Saint-like figure to many and actually many have allegedly committed suicide becuase they didnt' feel they could go on living without him...after seeing those hilarious screaming men in that London video, i guess I shouldnt be surprised
it's some consolation when we learn something from the daily news and/or when someone dies prematurely...i take nothing away from this one, we need to start taking responsibility for our own health choices and not looking for a doctor to sue ...it should be pretty obvious in this day and age that it's unwise to take or mix and match certain meds ...as for other recent passings, putting a noose around your neck (for starters) might lead to problems, not listening to medics following a head fall could be unwise, i could go on...believe me i'm not insensitive, hopefully somewhat rational...what is 'tragic' to me is when young lives are taken by war, drunk drivers, street racers, disease, etc...the term 'greatest ever' thrown around so loosely is also something i just grin and bear...anyhow, i hope all MJ worshippers here are doing well in coping with their loss, i really do...i've been naive about his behaviour the past few decades...some items are just alleged but i only yesterday saw a "real" photo of him holding an infant over a balcony (who fortunately wasn't harmed, physically anyhow...if that was me, my child would be taken away from me, no?)...maybe someday a real MJ fan can explain that sort of action...I know, they'll blame it on "Joe"
I missed the cnn spectacular but taped and sifted through...I saw Mariah sing a tune, it was heartfelt I'm sure but it really wasn't very good singing
note: Steve McNair (talented, succesfull, black QB) was apparently killed....not sure if that's considered tragic but seemed at least footnote worthy
