Very sad. Three celebrities I can remember very well. Must mean I'm gettin' old.

It's so sad about Ed McMahan and Farrah....but I believe Michael Jackson's death will take over the news now. Our local news is already showing clips of the Thriller music video.

Not nuts about Michael Jackson, but dying so young is always a shame. May he rest in peace.

I think Farrah would have approved. Not that michael died, but now the media will focus on HIM, and leave her in peace. I cant think of a more fitting tribute to her. She wished to not be a public spectacle, and there ya go. She got her wish.

I am sorry he died. 50 is just too young to die.

I just found out about both Michael Jackson's and Farrah's deaths a few minutes ago. This evening while I was driving in my car one of the stations was playing Thriller by Michael Jackson. I was thinking how I loved his music when he put that album out and thought it odd that they were playing it. Now I know why.

Anyone wonder if Michael Jackson's death will be like Elvis', and there will be sightings?

Wasn't crazy about Michael either, but, wow, in the 80's he had talent. Brings back memories, listening to old stuff.

Tribute to Michael:

I don't remember what year it was, somewhere around 1984, but I saw him in concert in Vancouver. A friend of mine was given tickets for her birthday, and I thought 'what the heck, they're free'.

I've seen Bob Segar, Billy Joel, Tina Turner, The Eagles, Rolling Stones, Elton John, Alice Cooper, and many more, but Michael Jackson's concert was by far the best I have ever seen. I felt like I was re-living my entire life in music (at that point, I was only twenty-something ), and he did his music right back to "Ben".

I enjoyed his music even in recent years, and I think he was an amazing musician. I wish his life hadn't turned out the way it did though. I'm glad the scandals are finally over for him, and everyone else involved.
