And that's more than enough, since he appears to have self destructed
at age 50.

Left out marriages....married to a woman whose father self-destructed in
much the same way. *Apparently killed by drugs, as so many more averageon
people are.



Now back to real life! And boy doesn't this nonsense really open up
our way of life and attitudes to anyone who wishes to criticise our
'Western' and 'Democratic' lifestyle!

I often wonder what children think seeing all the TV commercials for
Vhiagra-type drugs....or drugs for asthma or birth control that carry
cautions they can cause blindness, fainting, heart attack and death.
Oh! *I've gotta try that!???

In a way, i kind of resent the hero status some are giving him . While
i liked him in the early years with The Jackson Five for the catchy
fun songs...when he got older he essentially took the road to stardom
as many pop-singers have...that is, lewd behavior on stage (rubbing/
grabbing his genitals and thrusting them forward to the applause of
the brainwashed audience), proponent of rebellion thru lyrics, and
promotion of sexual immorality thru songs. However, i dont think he
was by any stretch the worst for this...I think the worst role-model
for young people is and always will be Madonna ; someone whos built a
$600,000,000 empire from pushing illicit sex mainly to kids just
reaching puberty. I suppose when she dies, shell be hailed as the
Princess of Pop (??).
