No. MJ's worm food, Quincy will ascend directly and corporeally into heaven. Pay 'tention.

And the horns on Stevie Wonder's "Do I Do" are pretty damn cool.

Does that mean the funeral will suck?

That's sweet. Housekeeping must either like you or think you have too many soda cans in the trash. Or some combination.

On a related note, I gave up cola last month and am drinking tons of water instead. Fierce headaches for the first week or so but now just the occasional fierce craving for caffeine, especially if I haven't had enough sleep.

I suspect it will be well produced, but antiseptic.

I'm wondering how much pop she drinks that she'd get it? maybe her office is where people congregate to take a break so it seems like there's too much pop drinking too be healthy for one person?

How many honest interviews have you read in the past year? Counting this one, I'm up to one. Quincy Jones:

The guy is definitely blunt. That talk about chemical peels -- it just makes my skin burn to think of what it would take to go from medium brown to paper white and stay that way. Ouch.

Michael Jackson came to my place of employment once (probably about 2002 or 2003) and had a meeting with the Chairman (not Sinatra). Anyway, a TON of people (employees -- myself included, embarrassingly enough) were crowded around that floor and on the staircase to catch a glimpse of him when he left the CEO's office and when he did, everyone clapped and was wide-eyed about seeing him. His son was with him, and was as blonde as McCauley Culkin (or whatever that kid's name was) -- that was a little weird.

Lots of famous people had meetings with the chairman, but the only one that caused such a big stir was Michael Jackson.

I don't remember, was that pre- or post- pederasty case?

I'm sure some people here are inured to a celeb in the office (you know who you are), but the funniest similar occassion I've seen was for Liv Ullman. It was about a dozen years ago, she was probably 60 (but still looked great), and I do believe that every male partner did a walk-by the conference room and that the elevator bank had at least 20 balding men in their 50s and 60 looking to exit at the same time she did. Most looking at their shoes. She had a cute daughter, not so glamorous.

Good times!

in my ex-aunt's last big movie role, she walked in the house and her movie-son spluged on her.

It took me a few reads to understand what I think you are saying here. At first, I didn't know what you meant by "spluged" but my hank-to-English translation program believes that you mean "splooged" (that's how they spell it in the OED).

So, are you saying that in the last movie your ex-aunt acted in, her character in that movie was favored with a sample of the semen of the character that was playing her son in said movie? Can we assume that the semenlike substance was merely a prop and not the real thing?

Thanks for sharing, Hank!
