I was very excited to see the American Reunion movie. I saw American Pie just after college and remembered it was quite funny.
Jim, Michelle, Oz, Heather, Stifler reunite for their high school...
Not exactly a rumor, but on Charlie Brooker's show last week, he showed a bit that ITV broadcast, then pulled (and according to him, have been yanking from Youtube on a daily basis ever since), where a couple of the channel's commentators do an amazingly ghoulish point-by-point "showdown" between Jacko's memorial, and Princess Di's, comparing things like number and prominence of celebrity guests and musical performances.
They gave Michael the win (3-2, if memory serves).
What surprised me was how long it was before he realized anything was wrong. It was almost as if he didn't get panicked until after a bunch of people rushed up to him.
I was chatting with an member of the Search and Rescue unit for the Government agency where I work, who has had nearly 20 years experience as an EMT, about that clip and he stated that people whose hair catches on fire are often not aware of it until it reaches the scalp. You don't feel pain until the scalp is reached, and with the kind of hair the Jackson had might take four or five seconds.
But even so, that footage is truly horrific.
Oh boy, TMZ is reporting that LA police are treating Jackson's death as a homicide.
Actually, CNN has been reporting that since Monday.
Just a proviso:Homicide does not equal murder. You are probably looking at a manslaughter charge for whoever was administering the drugs to Jacko,rather then Murder.

I figured he'd feel some heat or something and realize something was not right. But I guess under all those lights, it'd be pretty hot anyway.
Did they just buy a few pairs of gloves and divvy them up? What's with left on some, right on others?
I was wondering as well but I noodled out that since the brothers were possibly pallbearers they wore the glove on the hand that would be holding the coffin to keep it from getting all smudgy with prints.

with some people pointing out the facial similarities between Omer and MJ's youngest song(sic) Blanket.
I can't believe people are still claiming that the three very white-not a drop of black blood in them children on stage at that memorial are related to Jackson besides the checks he wrote for them.
78.not 82.
As long as Joe keeps away, probably the best choice.
But don't let her be a Co Executor of the will. She is not qualified to manage an estate the size of Jackson's.
As WWTDD.com astutely points out, this is the same lady who helped Joe raise Michael and his fucked up siblings. The jokes about the LA county justice system's kid glove treatment of celebs write themselves some days.

No so much celebs, but California law does heavily favor the last wishes of the parent in custody cases.
After re-reading part of the "Loose Brains" thread while trying to find Devin's editorial of the same name (still no luck - I've been looking for that ever since I watched United 93 a couple of weeks ago), I came across the description of that valiens.com guy as being a huge Jackson fan. Do we know if that dude's still alive?
Mr. Jackson weighed 136 pounds, stood 5-foot-9 and was free of major illnesses or serious organ damage. He suffered from arthritis of the spine and fingers, lacked pigmentation on his chest, and was balding, but otherwise was in relatively good health, Dr. Kain said.
Dr. Kain also said the autopsy report indicated the extent to which Mr. Jackson had gone to stave off old age; there were cosmetic surgery scars behind his ears and nostrils, as well scars on his neck, wrists, arms and stomach. He said Mr. Jackson also had several tattoos: on his scalp to hide his receding hairline, his eyebrows, and a pink tattoo around his lips.
