True Story: I was at the Phillies-Nationals game last night when they put up on the JumboTron something called the Bongo Cam. It is a giant graphic of a set of bongos at the bottom of the screen and when you are on camera you start waving your hands up and down pretending to play the bongos. As they are panning through the crowd the camera stops on an older black gentleman with a sweet jeff cap on his head and a toothpick in his mouth and he proceeds to dance/twirl around in a circle not really attempting to play the bongos. As I'm leaving, I see the older gentleman(toothpick still in mouth) and his 2 friends in the parking lot looking for their car and i say "Hey, you were on the bongo cam." And he replies (sounding drunk), "Yeah, I'm Willie Harris' father. He didn't play tonight."
"I'll miss Farrah deeply. I may have only been five, but I remember staying up just to watch-- and tape-- the first half of 'The Burning Bed.' Man, growing up, I wore that tape out. Funnier than Raw."
They played Michael's music during batting practice before Saturday night's Civil Rights Game in Cincinnati, home of that old Big Red Machine. It was for a completely different reason, though. It was to celebrate the soulful sounds of the Civil Rights movement at its height.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "Billie Jean is not my lover."
Look for Mark Newman's stirring tribute to Patrick Swayze, and a moving quote from Jason Bay that he "had this girlfriend who made me watch 'Ghost' once"
And yet no mention of Ed McMahon dying a couple of days before Michael and Farrah. He did commercials for Budweiser and ball parks all across MLB sold Bud in honor of him.

That's a low blow

This is pretty tenuous. I know Lee Majors was married to Farrah Fawcett, but he never really struck me as much of a Michael Jackson fan.

Michael is gone now. He passed away at almost the same time due to cardiac arrest
Some say they went to Canada. Others say, Toronto.

Lenny Dykstra just sold some gold for cash out of honor, as well.
