Bad Threes


I always say bad things happen in threes, including celebrity deaths.

It started the other day when Ed McMahon passed away. And I thought, there will be two more soon. Sadly, I found out today that Farrah Fawcett died, and when i heard that, I thought, I wonder who will be the third? I really wished I had not said that.
Because I just found out that Michael Jackson died of a heart attack.

When I was in first grade I went to school and a girl was playing a tape and it was the coolest sounding music I have ever heard. I asked her, "what is this?" and she said,

"It's Michael Jackson, duh!"
Up until that point the only music I had ever heard was, Country, Christian and Oldies. And when I heard Michael Jackson that day my love of Pop music blossomed. Yeah Micheal was a little weird, but he was an amazing performer and great songwriter. So sad.

It's really too bad that so much of his greatness was overshadowed by his weirdness and problems.

I remember being terrified of the Thriller video when it first came out, and that made it so cool. He and Elvis are likely to remain on their thrones for a very long time.
