If you have been among the living, civilized world for the past three weeks, then there is no way in hell you aren't aware of this. It has been the only thing on television for the entirety of the past three weeks. And when I say the only thing, I mean the only thing. Even if the guide says something else is on, when you turn it to that channel you get Michael Jackson.
Now granted, when the death first happened, I was riveted. Everyone I knew was riveted. My brother-in-law even admitted to getting out of bed at 1AM while his wife was sleeping, and dancing along with the Jackson videos they were playing. I would never admit do that!
However, as time goes on, I am not sure how much more of my life I can dedicate to the gloved one's death. There are only so many times that I can stand seeing Miko Brando on the Larry King Live show. And I have definitely reached my limit on the number of times I can see Debbie Rowe's ugly face.
So I say "no more" to watching Michael Jackson news. I feel like my life is going up in smoke like a wad of Michael Jackson's hair in a 1984 Pepsi commercial shoot.
I figure I've wasted at least 2 weeks of my life watching this crap. What is two weeks of my life worth? I figure it at about $1.4 million dollars, plus $150 for my cable bill, and $15 for a CD.
With this in mind, I will be setting up a website in order to take donations to recoup the cost of my memorializing Michael Jackson. I know you may think the Jackson family should pay for this directly, since they are the ones that introduced Michael to the world in the first place, but I'm not sure it is their responsibility. So, if you would like to donate to my fund, please post a comment, and I will give you directions.
Thank you for your support. Stickman out!
