What a crazy week! First Ed McMahon...Now Farrah Fawcett, Billy Mays, and Michael Jackson! Such a shame. Ed was due, but the other three were before their time.

Farrah Fawcett

This picture accent most teen boys bedrooms during the decade of the 70's. It also caused many of those boys to go blind...Or at least need glasses. Yes, many of your fathers.

One of Charlies Angels, she was THE sex symbol of the 70's. Men wanted her, women wanted to be her. Well, until the past two years. She died last week from probably the worst cancer imaginable...ass cancer. That's right. No joke. Worst possible cancer I can think of.

Its a damn horrible ending to a life that touched so many people touching themselves. She will be missed.

Oh yeah! She married her 30 year boyfriend Ryan O'Neal a few days before her death. Coincidence? I think not. He definitely needed all of that money for listening to her droning on about her great Charlies Angels 'on the set' antics. WOO! I'm sure they were doosies!

Billy Mays

Billy Mays was the MAN! He was a regular guy born in Pittsburgh that was a creative inventor and pitchman. He revolutionized the infomercial and became a John Everyman hero.

Truth be told...I'm watching the Pitchmen marathon that is currently on the Discovery Channel. And I'm loving it! He gave tons of people shots at becoming successful for their inventions.

He would totally kick the ShamWOW guy's ass...Even though you gotta respect a guy who beats hookers. Don't buy another ShamWOW...Buy ZorbEZE! The original and the better product.

LONG LIVE THE KING!



Michael Jackson

Speaking of the King. As much as I would like to do what everyone else is, and come up with some zingers about him and tear him down...I won't. There's been enough of that.

Michael was too important to music to attack him, regardless of his alleged indiscretions. Yes alleged. I've been thinking that maybe he paid off that kid so that he could avoid the circus of court that would've probably made the OJ trial look like a DUI hearing. He was always a private person, thanks to his abusive, insane father. It couldn't possibly be an extortion attempt made by a greedy parent looking to get paid...NO!

Anyhoo. Thriller was the first album I ever had and it was tremendous. I still think its one of the greatest things to hit my ear. It is still the highest selling album in music history. Oh, and then their was the music videos he created. He revolutionized the music video with movie directors, special effects, and mainstream actors. He probably saved MTV from going under in its fledgling years. His performances were epic, his music amazing, and his dancing was ground breaking. He was the best...The only other performer that even compares is Elvis Presley, and unfortunately, both of their lives ended tragically and sadly.

Everyone can make all the jokes they want...But he was legendary.

Again...LONG LIVE THE KING!

I'll try to post again this week because I have a lot to talk about. I just wanted to touch on this sad week in entertainment.

Late!
