Enough Already

Michael Jackson died.  It was a surprise.  We didn't see it coming.  He used to be a megastar and then he grew progressively... odd.  We get it.  Enough. We don't need to hear about it 24/7 on every freaking channel or have tickets to his FUNERAL auctioned off.  It's morbid and bizarre (albeit, he may have liked it).  But, ENOUGH!  Move along.  Nothing left to see here.

Yeah, my Southern thing is "Good grief, give the guy dignity in death!" On the other hand, I tend to feel he'd probably love the complete OTT of all of this.

And it really wasn't a matter of feeling 'too cool'. I owned an Air Supply LP. Air. Supply. (::dies a little inside with shame::) I just distinctly remember thinking that I wouldn't buy the LP because I heard Thriller all the time anyway, even without owning it, and I couldn't imagine needing to hear it yet more.
