I'm aware that the subject of MJ's death was probably posted elsewhere on the forum outside of AKA, but I was determined to get your all's opinion about his death. Besides, I did a search and couldn't find anything.
My entire summer was sad as a result of Michael's death. It is still surreal to me. I knew he was in bad shape, and it was pretty obvious that he didn't have long with all the of the health issues he suffered. But I expected my sorors to show a little more compassion than I found here. (Not saying that ny of you are emotinally stoic and heartless, by the way ...) I'll keep seeing the forum and see if anyone acknowledges his death at all, because I could very well be wrong.

I hope I am not speaking out of turn here, but I will simply say that most of the GCers you knew back in 2000 are long gone. There are other venues for us to use. The GC of 2000 is long gone.
The lack of conversation about Michael Jackson's death should not be indicative of compassion, interest, or anything else. It simply reflects that GC is no longer the hot spot on the Internet for Greeks.
One of the AKA moderators, Ideal08 is my dear, close to life long friend, and is a HUMONGOUS MJJ fan. HUGE, but she no longer posts here but I know that she is mourning the loss of her favorite entertainer's life.
Do you use FB or other online social networking sites? AKAs are there too.
