Oh somebody PLEASE bury MJ, ok??

Ok Consm folks out there: Who else is tired of hearing about Michael Jackson besides Jim Werbaneth and me? Was he talented? Yes. Was he on par with the greats in the music industry? No. He liked to be in the company of young boys and he should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law regarding the child molestation cases. I just hope to hell no one tries to nominate this freak for sainthood.

Comment by Tony on July 6, 2009 at 8:55pm: Thanks Jim, the cartoon is cool.
Billy Mays is great, a real down to earth blue collar guy that made it big with pure talent and hard work.

He could sell a monster wargame to a bunch of grass eating euro gamers and include the counter clipper for free.

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on July 6, 2009 at 7:36pm: You're absolutely right.

One of the things that I noticed about Billy Mays was that he seemed completely normal, with a normal family, friends, and ties to his hometown. He was a normal guy with a most usual, and commercially viable, talent.

I didn't find this by the way, another ConsimWorld member did, who posted it on a Wargamer.com thread.

Comment by Katie on July 6, 2009 at 7:10pm: Billy Mays was a real human being. MJ on the other hand, while quite the performer, was nothing short of a circus freak.

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on July 6, 2009 at 12:03pm: In the spirit of moving on to someone else...

Billy Mays was carried to his grave in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania by six pallbearers, all wearing blue polo shirts and khaki pants, in a funeral partially organized by Anthony Sullivan. I thought it was a great, even touching tribute, and strikingly normal next to the Jackson Circus.

Billy Mays Laid to Rest

Comment by Jim Millard on June 29, 2009 at 10:07pm: I'm with Kai- glad to *not* have TV right now; bad enough to hear about 'poor MJ' on every damn radio station I turn to, and the BBC even; this morning I was nearly ill at 3 AM hearing people from Kenya, Mumbai, blah blah blah 'how great he was'. Sheesh. Shuddup and move on to anybody else.

so God killed Michael Jackson.

Comment by Jim Werbaneth on June 29, 2009 at 1:06pm: Only if he neglects motorcycle safety. Either that or if he and Ed Begley hug a tree, and it hugs back a little too affectionately.
