I wonder how many of those 9000 tix will start showing up on Ebay tomorrow
night?

Another nagging question I have: Does anyone think Debbie Rowe’s will names her children as heirs?

Aren’t there reports that the Jackson family is largely cut out of the will? I suppose it qualifies as a final insult to snag so many tickets for themselves.

Maybe learning to moonwalk would improve my outlook.

For the sake of journalism, I actually applied for tickets, as did my housemate. The relief we felt when we got the “sorry” email was unmatched. I’ll be liveblogging from the comfort of the master suite here at La Figa Mansion, so please join me! Maybe wearing a sequined glove will improve my tpying.

Annals of Journalism…

Possibly OT, but with the state of Calif. sliding into the toilet, KPIX TV, San Francisco, devoted a segment last night to a pretty young woman who was lucky enough to score a ticket to MJ’s memorial.

Heart be still!

I am pretty appalled by this. The amount of money that will be made in necrocrophic profits are huge, and the cost of the city provided services for the memorial are but a grain of salt in the feast of fortune Jackson’s death has laid before his promoters and heirs.
