Michael Jackson Dies

[MK Shrimper]

If they're expecting any monies from the Jacko estate to ease their pain, they could be in a long queue....

I understand that the AEG promoters could not get insurance for all the gigs, the first 10 were covered

I heard that they got insured for some but not all of them as none of the insurance companies believed he would make it through all 50 so refused to insure him for that many...

On another tangent, what are the 02 going to do for those 50 dates now? I hope they're insured on their going to lose a **** load of dosh.

No problem they'll rename it the Millenium Dome.

There's 991 years to wait until they get their dosh back though!

992. ;) That's where they got it wrong last time celebrating 2000, not 2001.

In front of her children too, I believe. Really awful.

I don't know if it's true but I read somewhere that KM's son was actually the person in the boat's path and she sacrificed her own life to push him out of the way.

That pretty much sums up the Sky News coverage on that Thursday night!!

A lighter look at this - probably not recommended for overly sensitive Jacko fans:

Thanks for this, SS - I liked the way MS drew attention to the way people had confused MJ's er, ''influence,'' with retail units racked up. As Tennyson might have said, ''...influence? My ar5e!'' :stunned:

Apparantly Jacko's body could be put in a glass coffin for all to see in the coming days.

Am I the only person that thinks that's the worst idea ever. Aside from the joke that the plastic would melt in such a greenhouse like environment, the body has been though two post mortems.

If you don't really know what a post mortem is, they cut the body up and disect it, and when they are done, they put the insides into a bag, and then stitch it back into the body. Let's just say it's not exactly a pretty sight....

Oh, isn't Mark Steel fabulous? He certainly seems to have a rather inflated opinion of JFK. He was as big a pill popper as MJ and a sexual deviant to boot. If you really think his death caused the Vietnam War then you really have watched too many Oliver Stone movies. Worthless crap from this country's second worst Trotsky-ite rag. Well done to Sussex for pointing this **** out to us.

...with The Five's ''Lookin' Through The Windows'' playing? Wow! :clap:

I would imagine that the process for making a pork pie or scotch egg is pretty gruesome but as long as I only have to see the finished product I am happy to make them a part of my regular snack treat rotation.

Don't remember that comment in the Lady of the Lake.

It's there, hence the title Idylls of the King (of Pop).

I was backstage at Glasto (ooh hark, hark) when this news broke. It was a weird thing, some people seemed generally happy whilst some were yelling "blasphemer" for playing a few MJ songs.

Anyway, I couldn't stand the bloke or his music.

This was scrawled on the "Tribute Wall" at Glasto...

What's the difference between Neil Armstrong and Michael Jackson?

One moonwalks the other rapes kids.
