Michael

I know every blog in the world is covering the loss of Michael Jackson. I don't know what to say really. I love the man's music. His music conjures so many emotions and memories, how can I not love it.

I am tired of people judging him for something that wasn't proven. They won't even leave him alone in his death. I never thought the jokes about "little boys" were funny and I don't agree with how he has been treated. I do admit that I think he had a troubled life but that doesn't lessen his contribution to our world any less. J says that, yes, Michael shouldn't have put himself in that position but what parent in their right mind would let their child spend time with a grown man?

He changed the world. Heh, it sounds funny to say that, but if you think about it, it's true. He changed how people act, how people viewed music, music television, and the face of entertainment itself.

It doesn't matter if you never liked his music. He's passed and as a human being, you should honor it. Michael, you touched my soul with your music. /nod
