Mike’s 50th

Today marks Michael Jackson’s 50th birthday.  Unfortunately his very un-Hippocratic doctor seems to have done him in with clinical precision.  Too bad.  True MJ was off the weird chart.  But he was also every bit a genius of music, art, show and tell.  He did more by age 6 than I will ever come close to doing.  He worked long and hard, against tough odds in a rough business. MJ could be Motor City cool to trippyin Thriller; with the great Sir Paul McCartney he matched titanic talent; and he could be real with the Simpsons. Stinks getting your life cut short–especially by those hired to look after you, Play on Michael, wherever you are, cause I know you will be there.
