Drugs found in Michael Jackson's home

I read the "breaking news" on TMZ today that DRUGS were found in Michael Jackson's home. Check out the pics. The drug pill bottles were dated 2002 & 2003!!! First off, that is not "breaking news" when it happened 6 years ago. Secondly, if they were confiscated by police back in 2003, then WHY was this not investigated back then?? Michael could have been ALIVE right now if it was!! This just makes me so angry! They were so busy trying to pin other charges on him, they completely bypassed the fact that there were illegally obtained narcotics - and an abundance of them - in his home! Can you imagine how differently this all would have turned out if someone had investigated this 6 years ago? Maybe he would have been arrested & court ordered to go to rehab. Not that I wanted to see him in jail or rehab - but I would have rathered seen him in jail or rehab than in the golden coffin I saw him in the other day. ~cry~

Big Brother 11

Ok my favorite summer show has finally started! The theme this season is high school cliques. There are the Athletes, Brains, Popular and the Off-Beat. (I would have been an off-beat). If I was on this show and they told me I was going back to high school I would have walked off the show, LOL. It would not be worth the $500,000 to endure that again!
Anyways... their challenge today was to go to the back yard where it was transformed into a locker room. They had to wear these giant underwear over their clothes and hold onto a toilet seat while suspended in mid-air for a "wedgie" effect. The clique that had the last person hanging would win - and their entire clique would be safe from the chopping block. The kicker? There was 1 more person who was going to join the BB house. Someone from the past!
They were: Cowboy, Brian who was voted off 1st last season, Jessica from season 11?, and muscle bound Jessie. I was rooting for Brian. Cowboy was representing off-beat, Brian was Brains, Jessica was Popular, and Jessie was athlete. The team who won would get the corresponding extra person to be on their team for the 13th houseguest. The person coming back into the house would also be HOH.
Again - I was voting for BRAINS to win because I wanted Brian to come back into the house. But alas, Athletes won, so muscle headed Jessie was brought back into the house. Great. He is SO full of himself and so annoying. Why why why???
The show ended with Jessie walking into the house. Can't wait for Sunday!

R.I.P. Michael Jackson




Well, I spent the day Tuesday watching the memorial and crying my eyes out. I have been a fan of MJ since I was a kid. I remember having a crush on him when I was in the 4th grade. I remember wearing red parachute pants in Jr. High. We used to listen to him on the school bus.

Needless to say, I've been a huge fan almost my entire life. I believed he was innocent in 1994 and in 2003. I still believe he was innocent. While watching the memorial I kept expecting his coffin to open and for him to come out as this was just a big publicity event. So I hoped. But when the memorial was over and they started carrying his coffin away as "Man in the Mirror" played in the background, I finally realized for the first time that he was really gone.

Michael Jackson's life story is one of the saddest I've ever read about. His father terrorized him. His father, in my opinion, is a main reason I believe MJ ended up the way he did. I'm not even going to get into that again. I'm drained.

His memorial was beautiful and sad at the same time. I can't remember the last time I cried so much. Brooke Shields gave a beautiful speech - but then I read that she hadn't spoken to him since 1991. :( I wish the people that really knew him and cared about him were more persistent in helping him.

His kids really surprised me. I had never even seen them before. Very cute kids. Paris speaking out at the end was heartbreaking. Calling this man we just think of as an entertainer, "daddy" - wow. Yep, he was a father, not just a phenomonal singer, dancer and entertainer, but a "daddy". Kind of brought everything into perspective.
I am so glad to hear there were no arrests in LA and how everyone was so well behaved and so respectful for that day. It's the very least that Michael deserved.
For those who are cracking jokes about Michael, about his death and/or his life - it's a terrible shame. I don't think they are the least bit funny. Michael was very sensitive and he knew people were laughing at him - criticizing him - judging him - and that hurt him very much and ultimately likely lended a hand in his death.
RIP Michael, you are so missed.
