More Errata

I've established my bona fides as a curmudgeon.

I don't like TMZ, Entertainment Tonight, People magazine, or any of the other dozens of purveyors of useless drivel about useless people.

And predictably, I've been nonplused by all the hype over The Gloved One's demise.

But, there in the self-checkout line at the Wal-Mart neighborhood grocery, in the newsrack, was People magazine, with a turn of phrase that encompassed alliteration as it encapsulated the cover story.

The phrase?

Michael Jackson - Talent and Tragedy.

That pretty much said it all. Now, can we all get back to doing something productive?


(Like, say, blogging?)

MICHAEL THE NARC-ANGEL

Millions of little members of the worldwide F.F.A. (Future Followers of the Antichrist) have finally learned how to find a certain part of their lower anatomy and quickly touch it while dancing - thanks to Michael Jackson, the highest paid Lower Anatomy Toucher of all time! Special thanks also go to the Jesus-bashing, Hell-bound Hollywood moguls who were just as quick to see higher profits in lower anatomies! [Just saw this opinion on the web. Other grabby items on MSN, Google, etc. include "Separation of Raunch and State," "David Letterman's Hate, Etc.," "Tribulation Index becomes Rapture Index," and "Bible Verses Obama Avoids." - something for everyone!]
