What a sad day---first Farrah---one of the first women (not girl) this nine-year old wanted to marry---and now, Michael.
Michael was an icon. Michael was a genius. Michael was a pure talent. Yes, Michael had issues---some silly, others to have been taken very seriously---but we have to let the courts write that chapter of history. Remember him as someone who broke the color barrier at MTV. Remember him for the music---four amazing debut # 1 singles for the Jackson Five ("I Want You Back", "ABC", "The Love You Save", "I'll Be There"). Remember him as a great album artist ("Off the Wall", "Thriller" and my pick, "Dangerous"). Remember him as a great dancer and a great entertainer. Remember his compassion. Remember that he did change the world as its biggest star. Remember.
