caddymanLike him or loathe him, how many events, other than the outbreak of World War 3 would freeze the entire bloody intarweb as have the partially confirmed reports of the death of Michael Jackson.
I was in the pub celebrating coming second in the quiz when I heard, unlike that day in 1963 when I got grass stains on my suit from lying on a wet area on a grassy knoll. Whatever your view of the man's talent, style or general oddness in later years, he was a giant of the pop music industry and 50 is no age to die.
Michael Jackson as he should be remembered.
