So far, so good on a day without celebrity retirements, weird behavior or deaths. Keep up the good work.
I am in a state of waffling today - and I’m not talking Eggo.
I’m so conflicted about how I’m supposed to feel about the death of Michael Jackson. I loved his music. I traveled to Jacksonville for the Victory Tour. I get goose bumps thinking about watching him on “Motown 25.”
And then there’s the flip side. The freaky behavior, the criminal charges, the ever-evolving face.
I can’t seem to settle on one particular way to feel. So I’ll feel them all. I’ll be sad and mad and frustrated and more.
That works for me.

Celebrities are not treated like real people. So, we shouldn’t be surprised that many don’t act like real people.
Remember the music, the artisty, and the performances.
Allow a higher power to sort out the rest.
