Michael Jackson

I would like to take a second to talk about Michael Jackson and his death. Now I know that he was the king of pop and he had millions of fans who loved his music but, what is all the hubbub about. The TV is filled with stories on Jackson, even on channels that never cover these types of stories, like MSNBC. It is like the Pope or the president has died. It seems that there is 24/7 coverage of this story, he is a god figure, when a year and a half ago he was a reported pedophile who's bazaar looks, because of his many plastic surgery's, was scorned by the masses. I just don't get the reversal. It may be because he was a generational icon for millions of people who now are made to face the fact of their mortality, I just don't know. Well anyway, rest in peace Michael.



On a lighter note I ran the spin class Friday and it was just so special for all the class. Enough said.

Here is one of my favorite Michael Jackson songs.

The 24 hour news stations would do a week's coverage on David Hasselhoff's death.

That is very true. We really like our celebrities deaths.
