I refer you back to my last post, which again you chose not to read. Keep up Bob FFS.

Yes, I read that post. You're prepared to forget that, under normal circumstances, you want those kids taken off him - on the grounds that you like Thriller.


I understand completely.


You're not alone. Many millions agree with you.


In many ways Wacko has become THE template for the baby-buying, selfish celebs of today - all overlooked on account of them being famous. God go with him, as you say.

Calm your skin down Bob, you'll give yourself a heart attack if you keep up the self righteous Mr. Angry impersonation. You know I'm only messin' with ya.

Anyway, if I see another clip of either Thriller, Billie Jean or Beat It, I might have to dangle my own baby out of the window (don't worry - I'm quite well know in television circles, I'm sure I can get away with it).


What we need is a three-hour special where they play Earth Song back-to-back, plus the other two decades-worth of mediocre pap - so that people can come to a balanced conclusion about his musical genius.

Not really.


Dead or alive, Wacko means very little to me beyond filling tabloid inches in a thorougly entertaining fashion - and providing some solid choices for a wedding reception playlist.


But as an example of what those blessed with cash and an army of fans can get away with, when excused from the parameters that everyone else is suppose to function within, MJ excels.

Look no further than some of the posters on EDF for more examples, if you know what I'm saying

What I dont understand about people is how they expect a man with a crazy life to become a well rounded sane individual. I dont think he was horrible or perverted but eccentric is an understatement. Its like raising a spanish child with a chinese family and expecting him to still speak spanish...it wont work. I hope he s in a better place- he had the best/ worst life depending on what way you look at it

Quick update on 200M dollar loser Randy - as expected he now wants to turn the 50 night run into a tribute concert as "its the best thing to do for the family and the fans".


Randy. Wake up. It's over.

    • @alice I suggest you reserve judgement until you've experienced it yourself. 
    • Yes, I've never bought a  phone that was locked to a specific network. So as far as I know,I can just stick any SIM card in my old mobile. I think it still works, but there must have been some reason why I bought a new one. I think I wanted something with more storage capacity. I hardly ever make actual phone calls, I usually use WhatsApp or texts or emails, but clearly if my main phone is stolen I would need to make various phone calls ASAP. I was just going to get a cheap card from Argos, so I'm not sure anybody there would know! The actual mobile I use is on a SIM only contract with iD, so maybe I should just ask them. I don't care about the number as it's only for occasional use. I've had my main mobile number ever since I've had a mobile, so around 25 years, and I do care about that number as it's very easy to remember,  so I've moved it around whenever I've changed providers  Oh, really? I thought there were just two sizes and if you needed the smaller one you just took off the surrounding bit? Surely mobiles take a SIM card for any network, otherwise you could never change network without changing your phone?
    • No, the behaviour exhibited on the Rye, and now maybe neighbouring roads, goes far beyond 'age old silly behaviour'. It is intimidation. 
    • Thanks, I will look at OKR too
