I’m concerned about the massive press diversion, too.

Not to take anything away from the sad deaths. Rest in Peace to all. God bless their families.

Still, eyes wide open. There’s a lot of news to keep up with.

“Thanks, I had no idea Michael was a doorman at the Reagan whitehouse.”

I think you’ve got that confused with another picture. I’m pretty sure this one was taken when President Reagan commissioned Jackson as an Admiral in the Navy of the State of NeverNeverLand.

......MJ stated he had the disease publically......

He lied. His real disease was terminal vanity

Not true. According to imdb.com, he is currently filming a movie in NYC, which is nowhere near New Zealand.

It's typical for So.Cal...Lots of celebrities, lots of fans...Many want to be part of it for whatever reasons...Very typical...

So many people, in the neighborhood where he was staying, the LAPD has had to set up a command post, and they have the entire Holmbe Hills area of Westwood secured, but people are still getting through...

Pretty amazing people go through this when there is really nothing to see.

Too bad he didn’t get some service from a shrink, he certainly could have afforded it, but it’s also too bad he never paid for his crimes (other than bribe money to the families involved). Regardless, here are the lyrics of my favorite J5 song. The buh-buh sophistication in the lines is also seen in another J5 tune, “I Want You Back”, which is mighty similar to “1 2 3”, maybe the same composers?

Michael: A buh-buh buh buh-buh

J5: A buh-buh buh buh-buh

Michael: You went to school to learn, girl
Things you never, never knew before...

Jermaine: Like I before E except after C...

Michael: And why 2 plus 2 makes four
Now now now, I’m gonna teach you...
J5: Teach you, teach you

Michael: All about love, dear...
J5: All about love

Jermaine: Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is reapeat after me.

CHORUS:

J5: ABC
Michael: Easy as...
J5: 123
Michael: Or simple as...
J5: Do re mi
Michael: ABC, 123, baby, you and me girl!
J5: ABC
Michael: Easy as...
J5: 123
Michael: Or simple as...
J5: Do re mi
Michael: ABC, 123, baby, you and me!

Tito: Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
Jackie: Come on, let me love you just a little bit!
Jermaine: I’m a going to teach how to sing it out!
Michael: Come on, come one, come on
Let me show you what it’s all about!

Reading, writing and arithmetic
Are the branches of the learning tree

Jermaine: But without the roots of love every day, girl

Michael: Your education ain’t complete
T-T-T-Teacher’s gonna show you

J5: Show you, show you

Michael: How to get an A!

J5: Nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah nyah!

Michael: Spell “me” “you”
J5: Add the two!
Jermaine: Listen to me baby, that’s all you gotta do!

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Michael: Sit down, girl!
I think I love you!
No!
Get up, girl!
Show me what you can do!

Shake it, shake it, baby, come on now!
Shake it, shake it, baby, ooo oooh!
Shake it shake it, baby, huh!
123, baby, oo ooo!
ABC, baby, nah nah!
Do re mi, baby, huh!
That’s how easy love can be.

J5: ABC
Michael: ABC, it’s easy

Easy as123
It’s like counting up to 3
Or simple as Do re mi
Sing a simple melody
ALL: That’s how easy love can be!

*I* care.

My 8 year old daughter has it. Her father is from India; autoimmune diseases run in my side of the family. Her skin is olive toned, the vitiligo spots are cream colored.
