Michael Jackson

Did you watch the Michael Jackson memorial service? I caught parts of it and I have to say, it was quite tasteful.

The thing is... I'm not sure how I feel about us memorializing him like this. I know we've all been thinking it and I'll hold off a bit because the guy just died, but I will say this...

Since I (and about 99% of the world) did not know him, all I have to judge him on is his media coverage, which is quite sad, but also honestly true. Are we all huge bandwagon jumpers?

In the coming years, it will be interesting to see how we remember him.

But, his gorgeous daughter absolutely made me cry. I think that we forget that he was a real person. A dad. To us, he was just Wacko Jacko.

No doubt though, he was a true talent.
