Things that make me go hmm:
The death of Michael Jackson: Wasn't expecting that. If anything even after I called my friend for confirmation, I still didn't want to believe it. I was a semi fan after I grew up and was reintroduced to the "king of pop" with his Thriller album. I had it on tape. I wore the tape out. Then he started changing his looks, became quite eccentric and at some point I lost whatever respect I had for him. The man went from black skin to white skin and had the audacity to claim that he had only 2-3 plastic surgeries. How gullilble did he think we were?
The death of Farrah Fawcett: Buried by the death of Jacko. A pretty face who proved herself as an acterss. I couldn't get into Charlie's Angels. Never watched it. OK an occassional episode, but I was not an avid follower. I loved her work in "The Burning Bed" and "Extrimities." That was the Farrah that impressed me. And she fought that cancer with all of her might to the bitter end.
The death of Ed McMahon: Dang! This one got BURIED! No pun intended, but the fact that his passing 2 days before Jackson and Fawcett was overshadowed by their deaths. And as my young fried said, "Who's Ed McMahon?"
Barry Madoff's wife: OK. You lived the high life for how long and now you're shocked, stunned and hurt by your husband's greed. She's shocked, stunned and hurt because she can no longer live that lifestyle and all of his assets have been seized. Billions of dollars. Billions sister, and none of it is legally yours!
Richard McTeare Jr.: This psycho fool threw a baby out of a moving car. No remorse for his actions and the baby wasn't even his. Yes he needs to be tossed into the belly of hell and executed...revived and executed again....
No politics here. Just thoughts on recent happenings. Think about it.
