i just got emailed from a friend saying that all the TV channels are broadcasting MJ's funeral, i check and it's true, although i only have network TV.
I was wondering if anyone else is finding a tone of channels devoted to MJ only?

Yep, sure enough, since this morning. I don't begrudge him though; he was certainly an icon. Besides, my very favorite channel, the Food Network, is rarely preempted for such things.  |
I don't have cable, but i am watching a Mirror's Edge LP

He had a funeral befitting of an 80s icon. It was eclipsed in magnitude perhaps only by Ronald Reagan's state funeral and Pope John Paul II's funeral.

Don't forget Lady Di's, that was huge as well.
And to repeat my post from the MJ topic, I counted 17 channels this morning. The major networks, the HD feeds of major networks, MTV, VH1, BET, WE, etc.

1) John Mayer plays guitar like a fucking douchebag.
2) MJ's daughter's speech at the end made me cry.

I'm convinced that Mayer's picture is next to the entry for douchebag in the dictionary.

I think Jason Mraz looks more like a douchebag than mayer does. For some reason, their music doesn't irritate me.
Maybe cuz I'm a big wuss

anytime someone comes in and is all "HEY GUYS MICHAEL JACKSON DIED"
just stand up and be all
"oh my god guys. president kennedy's been shot by a sniper!!!"
not only does everyone laugh, they shut up after.
