Bad things happen in threes. Some people may count Ed, but Ed died earlier this week. I'm hoping Patrick Swayze is hangin' in there! =(

I'm not saying that its not true...i believe that when all these places confirm it, it's true. But i'm waiting for CNN to confirm it before i'll let it sink it (if it ever does...i wasn't a fan of his).

That's what my Dad said when I told him. He said, "There's number three.... and what a number three!"

RIP MJ

I get CNN's news alerts and they e-mailed at 5:32 reporting him dead. (although they did say according to multiple sources.)

Ya, there are several right by the med center. The closest would be Theta Chi, SAE, Delta Tau Delta, Theta Xi, and Phi Psi

The radio stations are rotating his hits right now. I was doing fine until they started playing "Man In The Mirror" -- Had to turn it off.

Sigh.

Local Top 40 station is playing Michael, then a song from today, then Michael, and so on. Station is telling the kids texting in that they should listen to his music, then listen to the next song and appreciate how much he contributed to the music community.

Smooth Criminal is on now. Love this song.

I was trying to wait for CNN to confirm like an hour ago, but to be honest, the LA Times is credible enough for me at this point.

The station I just turned on is doing the same thing.

I'm glad that I was able to experience his talent, and I hope younger audiences realize how much he's contributed.

^^^ Who wasn't, though?

ETA: MTV is playing a cycle of his videos. Check it out.

They're playing "Bad" right now -- so many memories...
