            Michael Jackson was a wealthy man who had been suffering from loneliness and a soul sickness that was profound. RIP.

              Poor guy. Sounds like he might have put two and two together and thought, "Hmm. A 50 year old skeleton doing the moon walk in a tour that will probably kill a guy far younger than me? Eeeewhoooo. I'm OUT of here!"

                  Poor guy all that talent and fame (along with the infamous stuff). You have to admit he was talented. RIP, maybe you'll find some peace now. I heard Farra Faucet died as well.

                    Time and Newsweek are going to be busy in the obit sections. Jacko, Farrah, Ed NcMahan, and the Iranian uprisings.

                        Wow! The dude was once the most important artist on the planet. An American tragedy. We build them up and tear them down. And nobody fell further than Michael. In my youth nobody had more potential than The Jacksons. And nobody was cooler than Michael when I was in college. Nobody thought he was weird in the least. But that was a period of about a decade and once it was over, it was over. I think the fame truly drove him crazy. He slipped the rails and nobody dared to right him.

                        Will this be a day to remember like the night John Lennon died or the day when Elvis passed?

                        Michael may have been the first real crossover artist. Where people didn't really think in terms of black and white. But in the end he was badly tarnished. Like Elvis, a shell of what had once been. And Elvis never faced the legal scrutiny of Michael. To some that will be the memory.

                        This was the way this story was ultimately meant to end. This was a fatalistic situation.

                          in a way, i can think of one person who must be delighted to hear this news...gov. mark sanford

                          it certainly turns the spotlight of the 24/7 news cycle off of his antics in argentina.

                          rip michael, you were a smooth criminal
