STOP IT!!!!
While the death of Michael Jackson is a tragedy for his fans and family let’s remember who he was. A very talented child and young adult who got pretty freaky as he got older. I just heard him compared to MOZART for Christ’s sake. The man hit his peak at 10, after that it was a long slow decline. Yes he was talented, but no he wasn’t Mozart, and no, he wasn’t bigger than The Beatles, and no he wasn’t bigger than Elvis. Tragically, his offstage life by far overshadowed his talent. Death and hyperbole go together I guess.
OK, we live and work in NASCAR country, and we see firsthand the passion NASCAR fans have for their sport. And yes, NASCAR is not as interesting to me since Dale Earnhardt died in the Daytona 500. But damn, I’m not from here and I just don’t get this!!!
