Barry Gordy's family was at the Motown Museum too, and they seemed sad, but that could have simply been worry that the folks partying might ruin the lawn?

I have one of his old "Thriller" posters in the same hand in which I'm holding Farrah's.

It's tricky, but I'm nothing if not dexterous.

I saw that Motown 25th anniversary performance for the first time since it originally aired back in 1984. It's amazing.

I'm really glad that I bought the 25th Anniversary Thriller CD last year.

Well, even though the Michael you loved died long ago, there was never an appropriate mourning period/time to appreciate his work. Now is the time.

By the way, did you hear that those fans were at the wrong star?!? I expect this to make Shifter's Fail blog, if it has not already.

Too obvious.

Quincy Jones was amazing. Michael, not so much.
