Reuters are saying

That Michael Jackson has died.

Geez. This is... horrible.

From Glinner on Twitter: 24 hours news coverage + death of major figure + not much information = interview with every lunatic under the sun. I hear that! :o(

It's sad, he was such a troubled soul. You may not have heard amidst all the coverage of MJ's death, but Farrah Fawcett passed away yesterday as well.

Farrah Fawcett

Yes, I knew about that but I didn't really know her in any real sense so, sad though it was, of course, it hasn't really touched me in the same way.

Understandable. Here in the U.S., way back when, every boy my age had the Farrah swimsuit poster in their room, all the girls wanted the Farrah hair and we were all trying to moonwalk. A friend from high school sent me this link from fox news. Interesting commentary on a generation facing the loss of two of its most famous icons
