The King Is Dead! Long Live The King!

I haven't been a fan in years but I am saddened by the untimely death of Michael Jackson. He was a huge part of my childhood. I listened to Jackson 5 tapes on long Amtrak rides to Florida for Spring Break. I watched Thriller over and over an over again. My cousin just reminded me of the time I would dress like MJ. Even when he got weird I was rooting for him to come through all of the drama.

Now he's dead and despite my irreverent humor and tasteless jokes in the days to come I will miss his presence in the world. He was magic.
