So Michael Jackson has died. Big deal. Everyone is so heart stricken. Why? Let's not forget that he was a freakish child molester. That's who he was. Thriller was 25 years ago. You're only as good as your last song. Did he really "touch" you? Do people still listen to Thriller on their way to work or at the gym? Probably not. About the only thing that will matter in 20 years is when your kids or grand kids ask if you ever saw him in concert and what was he like. Or they'll ask about that dam
Pepsi commercial. But, with the exception of a president, VP and Oprah, there really is no bigger celebrity that could die. Sorry folks, I'm just not feeling it like some are.
I'm finding more excitement with
this. Three posts all on the same topic. I honestly thought
time trials were only in stage races. I do know one of the riders in question and all I'll say is this. In my 10 years of being around the PA scene, he is by far one of the most down to earth, professional, nicest guys you will ever met. He's no cheater. Not in my book. Maybe in yours. But not in mine. Back to the topic. I can tell you a few people that are happy that MJ died.
This guy:

And these two:

He sure as hell is taking the camera time away from them. Speaking of Jon and Kate, I rode by the infamous house yesterday and couldn't believe it. A security guard at the gate, 6 photographers at the fence taking photos and a god dam helicopter flying overhear.
A pretty cool one. I stopped to talk to one of the paparazzi and he was going off about being stuck in the middle of a field taking photos of these two and how he should be in LA or New York. Oh well. Jon's a good guy. I've known him for over 25 years, as our families were friends growing up. I haven't seen him in quite sometime, but he seems like the same guy. He may want to reconsider. She's
getting hotter and she's got a lot of $$. Good luck finding that in Berks County.
