My Thoughts On The Michael Jackson Trial
Michael Jackson is a creepy weirdo. I do not understand him, I believe he set himself up for what is now going on in his over-privileged life. Like most apparently well-adjusted individuals today, the sight of him is fascinatingly morbid and awe-inspiring, mixed with an innate sense of repulsion.
He is a frightening caricature of what is wrong with our celebrity-obsessed, cosmetically-focused contemporary culture. I have very little pity for him and will reiterate that he has brought this whole mess down on himself. For many years, going back to his "special friendships" with the likes of Webster, McCaulay Culkin and other pre-pubescent boys I have seen the red flag glaring in the public eye, almost as if he was flaunting a perverse predilection for such questionable company. I often wondered who was buying into this disgusting nonsense? When was someone going to do something about this? Aside from some early Jackson 5 hits, I never liked his music. I just did not get the whole thing. The real turning point for me was in some extended video that I caught late one night on VH1 the repeated crotch-grabbing dance moves, in the presence of children. I had had enough. So did D.A. Sneddon from Santa Barbara county, who I am loathe to align myself with, despite my earlier wishes.
I will just come out and say it. In this case, I believe he did not molest those boys. The accusing family seem to be first-rate Grifters, working a con on the public's sympathies and apparent outrage at the creature that Michael Jackson has morphed into.
I believe he will walk free from this, his career irreparably destroyed.
Who wants to put money on it?

Marlin Brandos ghost will redeem them as it rises from the court basement and does some snooping for day-old Krispy-Kremes.
One thing is for sure, if I get hauled into court for so much as a loitering charge I will show up in my po-jamas and act like I have been sniffing gas.

Brilliant! But it will not be Marlon Brando - It will be Val Kilmer (who, oddly enough, is still alive) imitating Marlon Brando as he did in the über-bizarre Island of Dr. Moreau...
The case gets weirder and weirder every day. My bet that he walks still stands...

Val Kilmer is still alive? I thought that last Oliver Stone flick did him in once in for all in Hollywood. (Not the one where he played Jim Morrision, the one where he plays Odepus' father, essentially playing as Jim Morrision once again.)
It will be the spirit of Kieran Culkin as Brando, his almost 16, that's washed up in that town.
