VIGILS FOR WACKO JACKO: Am I the only one who is disturbed by the fact that people in various countries are holding vigils for Michael Jackson? I understand fandom and the whole innocent until proven guilty thing, and I certainly don't know beyond a reasonable doubt that Jackson is guilty of anything. People do try to get money from celebrities. But the charges don't strike me as entirely implausible, to put it mildly.

Jackson's own stated behavior seems bizarre enough to make you look twice at such allegations. And what is up with these parents who allow their children to go to Neverland sleepovers? And if he's found guilty, will any of these people holding vigils change their minds about his innocence? I for one might burn my copy of Thriller.

If it's a CD, I want your copy of Thriller.

Wait, one of you owns a copy of Thriller and the other one wants it?

This is getting weird :-)
