Michael Jackson

MICHAEL JACKSON. He died. Funeral today.

I just thought that since it was on: Fox News, CNN, ABC, MSBN, PBS, Willy-Wonka News, all the papers, Time magazine, all the television channels, all the radio channels... (and what am I leaving out) I better damn well put it on Sailnet too. I would not want us left out. I mean, just in case you did not know... Michael Jackson died.

There you go. Sorry I broke the news to you. Just remember, you read it here first.

- CD

What CD says is true. I just turned on the television and Michael Jackson is indeed dead. The funeral is today. It's difficult to get details.

Who died? There is some post game show on TV. I think they are about to give some guy named Jackson a trophy or something.

I think you guys have been taken by an internet rumor.

Either that, or it's a publicity stunt for his upcoming concert tour.

When Farah Fawcett got to the pearly gates she was asked by St. Peter if she had any last request.

She said just to save the children.

The next day Michael Jackson died.

I heard he had a heart attack when Walmart announced they were having a sale with all boys pants half off. HAR HAR HAR...

I know, I know... No taste, no shame. Last I checked, there were plenty of other things going in the world worthy of more attention than MJ's passing.
