Michael Jackson has Died--The World is Now Made Less Interesting in Your Absence



Michael Jackson has died.

Our generation's Elvis is gone. We'll have a proper MJ reflection post in a bit, but this is truly a surprise.

I guess Johnny Carson got Ed McMahon back a few days ago and they wanted to do a special edition of The Tonight Show in heaven with guests Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson.

Travel well, you had a kind heart and were a genius of the first order.

That's a nice sentiment. Peace and Blessings

Very sweet sentiment. I will always remember MJ for what he was to me in my childhood. I hope he is truly at peace.

@R-Son, we loved him too, and appreciate the sentiment.

@PPR-he was a great man, a fixture of our childhoods.

We got something fun planned to remember him, trust, you will like it--so stay tuned and participate.

To both, I was talking to a friend about MJ a little while ago, and we both agreed that whatever folks say about him, he had a good soul and that always came through no matter what. There was something so honest and vulnerable and good about him, and I hope that is how he is remembered.
