BAXALOUGE
BY STEVE BAXLEY
Now with that fresh scent of Rabbit


Micheal Jackson passed on the same day as Farrah Fawcett, yet the media has made the self professed "king of pop" bigger than the death of Pope John Paul II,the assassination of JFK or even the loss of Farrah herself.

As we enter the 300th hour of MICHEAL MANIA, the media grows like locusts as does the crowd, even LAPD is saying "DONT BOTHER COMING TO THE CON..uh MEMORIAL IF YOU HAVENT GOT A WRISTBAND AND TICKET" yep LA is shutting down for what is a glorified concert, and frankly that is sad, that while people villify a man with many problems and skeletons in his closet..(even Keith Olbermann's spine is there from what im told.) A real person passed and never got HER memorial service beamed to the world.

Farrah Fawcett deserved a better tribute than a small box on the cover of PEOPLE magazine, a mere "oh by the way" mention .

The coverage of Micheal's passing has been so overblown, its gotten even harden news viewers burned out and crying "enough already"! the last time someone got so much blanket coverage ...when Princess Diana died in a car crash,chased by overanxious paps looking for that big story.

And get this, the folks who had the scoop on MJ's passing ..wasnt a major TV News organization,not even a cable news outlet...it was a website TMZ.com again proved that they ARE more better than the national media when covering big stories.

Even Rev. Al Sharpton, the media hog that he is has "requested" that the United States Postal Service issue a comemorative stamp of M.J. ALONG with a national day of mourning,please someone hand me the Michael Jackson memorial gold barf bag!

But enough is enough, in fact the only thing missing from the procession,the horse drawn carriage with his coffin draped with the american flag.

Enough is Enough, Im burned out for all this and wont be among the flock who will be watching the concert..uh memorial, I rather remember those who never got their due props, like my dad and others who fought in both Korea and Nam, or those who fought in Iraq, and other wars we fought in.

Where are their concerts?
