God Bless MJ

I cannot believe he's gone.

The two most memorable musical moments of my life were the first time I heard Mariah's voice and saw Michael PERFORM.

I feel like a part of childhood has passed on with him. I've always felt that he was always mistreated and misunderstood by so many people. How sad it is that it's only on his death that people truly recognize not only what an amazing artist he was but his philanthropy and ability to bridge racial gaps in music and media in general. Our culture won't ever be the same without him. I think his legacy remains in these lyrics:

I'm Starting With The Man In
The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change
His Ways
And No Message Could Have
Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World
A Better Place
(If You Wanna Make The
World A Better Place)
Take A Look At Yourself, And
Then Make A Change.

Self Diagnosis

Do you have....

Lack of pleasure in everyday life,
diminished ability to initiate and sustain planned activity,
speaking infrequently, even when forced to interact,
neglect basic hygiene

Do you harbor...

poor "executive functioning" (the ability to absorb and interpret information and make decisions based on that information),
inability to sustain attention, and
problems with "working memory" (the ability to keep recently learned information in mind and use it right away)

?

Then you may have schizophrenia [say the ferry ads]

Funny how Bar Review causes the same symptoms.
