Michael Jackson - One Year On

It's still hard to believe that Michael Jackson is really dead and that it is now 12 months since it happened. In that time his estate has made $1 billion in royalties! His sister La Toya is still claiming that he was murdered "because he is worth more dead than he was alive"! That is a very salient point and is very hard to argue against! His brother Jermaine thinks he should have embraced Islam and that might have saved him. He's also mystified why in death people love Michael but was viewed as something of a joke when he was alive. Sadly, that's human nature, to remember the great songs and music, but to forget the darker, creepier side of him! I've always enjoyed the songs!
