I was thinking the past few days about what I should write up in this spot. I have thought long and hard but the two subjects from my previous posts - the protests in Iran and the death of Michael Jackson - kept rushing through my head over and over again.
I haven't seen a lot of footage of protests in Iran (on tv) in the past week but that's not what I want to adress today. What we've seen were these green banners and posters with the text 'Where is my vote'? I saw them for the first time on Facebook and later on, when the protests in Iran started, on tv and in the newspapers. Here's what makes me curious: who designed that thing? Holler at me if you know! Pehaps an American advertising agency? (Conspiracy theory AHOY!) In the meantime be sure to show your support to these people in one way or another.....
Preparations are being made on the other side of the atlantic pond for Michael Jackson's funeral. Anyone that has ever seen a live performance by MJ can pretty much guess that his funeral will be a dictionary definition of the term 'going out with a bang'. Once this is over it WILL probably be the dictionary definition of 'going out with a bang.' That public memorial concert will - I think - just be the beginning. Where he will be buried, however, is still a question. :-|
I guess his family could bury him on his ranch Neverland and turn the place into some sort of sanctuary for family and fans alike. If the town where the ranch is located can handle such a large amount of people on a yearly basis. It would sure be good for the economy in California....in times of crisis like these. (HINT! HINT! HINT!) And on the other hand: Elvis has Graceland and Mike would have Neverland. The king of rock n roll has found his equal in death in the form of the king of pop. All that Mike' grave needs now is an estate to go with it.
Lemme know if you disagree.
Back in a sec once more...
