Watched Farrah's Story and Man in the Mirror. Farrah's circumstances were so sad and MJ life of innocence.

Wow, what a crappy Thursday! As I was reading coverage about Farrah's death I glimpse a ticker about Michael Jackson being rushed to the hospital and "in very bad condition" Dead and veyr bad condition are not the same and one extreme to the other! I was shocked when it was verified that he was gone. Unreal. Farrah's death was expected though unwanted, because of the cancer- Michael however, wow!I am blown away with it. Natasha Richardson, Michael Jackson were two very unexpected deaths for sure. Michael jackson was the untimate entertainer in all he accomplished. I will miss seeing what would have been if he was able to do the comeback tour.

Whatever controversy he got, Michael still was respected in the end.

A lot of choices. Get the TIVO revved up to capture some memories for the future.
