Some things about the world confused me more than ANYTHING - they're all people, or things people do, or the way people act. But believe it or not, high at the top of the list is a name that lots of people have been interested in these days -

Michael Jackson.

I mean, seriously, think about it. This guy is a creative genius. He's the quintessential popstar. On average, more than 1/5 of ALL 280 million Americans owns a copy of "Thriller." Umm, Justin Timberlake eat your heart out - this guy set and will hold the standard for damn near ever. This man is the king of pop, without question. The most phenomenal artist/performer combination of all time, and maybe any time.

And one of the biggest fucking wackos in the history of the celebrity world. I mean, WHAT THE FUCK?

Why Michael? If Jacko wasn't a wacko we would probably have been blessed with dozens of other phenomenal hits, if not whole albums, along the lines of his previous success. I'm serious. I challenge you, download Thriller, Beat It, Billie Jean, and Smooth Criminal just to name a few hits - put them on a playlist, listen to all of them, and tell me you can't feel it. Everyone can. Hell, the man moonwalks. What the hell is that?

Why did he have to be psycho? The music industry suffers a great loss because of it.
