Hypocritically adding to the problem

Jump to Comments

I liked Michael Jackson’s music as much as the next middling fan, but really now, enough is enough. I’m not even watching the memorial service, but it’s still getting at me via osmosis. The sighs and sniffs around me are telling the story of an insane, overwrought spectacle. Truth be told, I’ll probably take a peek on youtube at some point today, and I will feel bad about myself when I do. Where was this kind of national day of mourning when Paul Newman passed? Though it’s better this way. He was too classy and human for this madness.
