also a bad week to be an iranian voter, but that's all fallen by the wayside since reports were confirmed that michael jackson has died. to this day, one of my absolute favorite things to do is listen to the thriller record with those huge headphones and just zone everything else out. i think it's very easy to remember mj for his recent legal and financial trouble, but when you look back at some of the videos.... that guy can perform.
this article is pretty great. considering i found out about mj being dead (well, at that point only tmz was reporting his death; everyone else was only reporting cardiac arrest) through twitter before i left work, the blogosphere moved quickly on this one. pretty amazing to think of what his super-super-extreme star potential could have been in the age of twitter/fb.
a few concerns now... what happens to his kids? from coverage i've heard today, it sounds like he truly loved them. i hope they will be taken care of properly. also, does he still own any of the beatles catalouge? where does that go? who now owns the mj catalouge?
i would highly highly recommend the following:
as much as i normally hate the 24-hour talking heads, i've been glued to cnn (and twitter and tmz and people). i'm sure there will be more here in the following days as more details are revealed, especially the autopsy which seems to be schedule for tomorrow.
what color are the spirals? if you say pink, green and blue, you're wrong...
my brain cannot even begin to understand this. according to cnet, a "facebook movie" is in the works. does this make sense to any of you? i just can't figure out what this movie would be about. would it just be about a guy who sits around and we watch him post pictures, create invites and add new friends? why is this even a suggested movie?! of course, the powers that be already want michael cera to star. i think that makes sense, but then i remember that the movie's entire concept makes 0 sense. boo.
when i saw this story on ew.com, i just about lost my lunch (afternoon coffee, whatevs). not only do i despise elizabeth hasselbeck, i highly dislike kate gosselin as well. apparently, this morning on the view, hassel went off on kate, saying she should "get a job". after one of her co-lady-hosts tried to point out that her job is the show, books, etc (as stoo-pid as that may be...) hassely squeeched "i don't care!" it's like a battle of the idiots over who is more idiotic over there...
im not such a barbara walters fan...i don't hate her either, but sometimes i find that she's the only vaguely competant person on that show. anyhow, barb apparently said that "if you have more than five children, you shouldn't be allowed to get divorced."allowed?? maybe the issue is that these people had no business of having eight children in the first place! bah! any thoughts from my friends out there?
PS to hassely - what is YOUR job?! you were on survivor once, married a football player and somehow i should care about your opinions?
would it be inappropriate to make this picture the background on my phone?
