I haven't written anything for a while. Let's see. Monica Conyers was indicted by the feds and plead guilty to one count of conspiracy. She could face five years in prison. She resigned from the Detroit City Council. It's hard to believe that her husband didn't know anything about any of this.
Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Karl Malden died within a week and a half of each other. Farrah staged a valiant fight against cancer. Malden died of old-age. Jackson died of a possible drug overdose.
My son-in-law said, "I don't know why everybody is so upset about Michael Jackson. He was a pedophile, a drug addict, $400 million in debt, his nose was falling off, and he probably had HIV." Mitch Albom suggested the out-pouring of grief was more about the grievers than Michael. Jenny says it's something about the loss of youth.
Jenny told a cute story about Sophie and a friend of hers. They're riding in the car. The girls are in the backseat and Jenny hears their conversation go something like this.
"Michael Jackson died on Thursday."
"Yes. He was brown-skinned boy who turned into a vampire."
"Or, a woman."
Through the eyes of children.
More later.
