Its been formally announced that Michael Jackson just passed away of cardiac arrest. Also today, we lost Farrah Fawcett.

Sad day for some young stars!

[In awe of TV]

Very sad indeed. RIP.

Seems they come in three's. Ed Mc Mahon being the first one.

Well, in this case 4's. David Carradine a few weeks ago.

Kathie. You beat the major networks in breaking this news.

He was at one time a brilliant entertainer but in later years he seemed a man possessed of demons. He has left three children with no parent since their mother relinquished custody which I could never understand.. He had personality issues to be sure and I for one did believe that he was a pedophile,I just couldn't fathom any other reason for his strange behavior. Still many believed him innocent and he will be mourned all around the world and his music will be his great legacy.

I hope that he will rest in peace.

The world just said goodbye to the performer of the greatest selling rock album in history. He was a troubled genius who had the good fortune to team with Quincy Jones and create music that was phenomenal. For a moment the world will be distracted from all the stuff that normally fills the news. 92.9 is playing his music.

Actually Gracie, I just heard the official time was 2:36 PDT so if you look at my post, I was about 10 min. early. I was on the website for TMZ looking for info on Farrah, and happened to see that they pronounced him dead on that site much earlier than all the news media. Interesting??? Just call me the "Rona Barrett" of TOTV... Actually, I loved his music, he was very a creative genius. I'll always remember, "we are the world" video that he did with Quincy Jones. Phenominal!!!

RS, these storms are breaking into my evening social life. I'll try to be there, we were there last night, and had a great conversation with the general manager. I'll post separately about their plans. Hope to see you tomorrow.
