OK, without rehashing his life

Michael Jackson died yesterday and while I remember him as a huge star when I was in elementary school, of course, we all know the issues in his recent life.

I am not even going to get into that, but rather observe the following about the media coverage of this:

1. If someone had said his name 2 days ago most people would respond "freakshow" or "child molester" "hotel-balcony-baby-dangler" or "plastic surgery cautionary tale", but now he was the greatest entertainer of all time 
2. The summary of the media coverage for me, is the fact that the Today Show is interviewing COREY FELDMAN, where they dug him up from I have no idea.  In any event, he is introduced as a lifelong friend of MJ.  Then one minute later in the interview it comes out that he hasn't talked to or seen Michael in SEVEN YEARS.  Way to score the big story Today Show 

This does give me an opportunity to review the outfit I wore to school in 4th grade:

1. Michael Jackson t-shirt with the Billie Jean picture, pink 
2. Lee Jeans, Pin-stripe 
3. Earrings, White Sparkly Glove 
4. Nike Tennis Shoes, Powder Blue Swish 

I was the coolest, most badass fourth grader in town.   Pinning jeans into a really unflattering sillhouette didn't come into play until sixth grade or I assure you that would have been in the mix.

Jobin, you're speaking as if you've never seen Corey Feldman's reality show.
