Elvis just cuz he IS the only King.

Bill Gates just cuz he is smart.

Bill Clinton cuz he's a dog

Bill Murray cuz he's funny and crazy.

Bill o Rights to see if he talks as much as he posts

No, I beg to differ ...he's ruined TV news for 7 flipping days now and the end isn't in sight!!!! He's dead, okay - fine. Story over.

Yeah, with OJ. This MJ nonsense may take as long.....the will, the lawsuits, the kids, the lawsuits over the kids,....the kids own lawsuits against those who involving them in lawsuits.

Maybe MJ t-shirt sales will pull us out of a global recession.

I'm at my son's apartment taking care of him. He has no cable or dish. Still when I try nearly any news site, there is far too much Jackson coverage.

The Marines are involved in a large operation against Taliban insurgents. A US soldier is being held by the Taliban. Iran is still dealing with the election fallout as well as all the BS they had before that. Over 400,000 Americans lost jobs this month. We have a long way to go before the economy is truly better. But still an entertainer is able to grab headlines.

BTW. Karl Malden snuck in somewhere behind Jackson this week.
