I came across one video clip and early clip of Mr Moonwalk himself and it bought back a lot of memories. But I have to say I didn't go looking for Michael but there he was in quite a few places regardless. It seems a little stupid that people would "unfollow" you for your thoughts or comments. I normally would go to the television when I wanted to know something about a celebrity but I must say that lately I can't keep track of any of it and usually just get a pop up of a snidbit of information on the web page that I am viewing and then my memory will take me further to read about the celeb or I just in the end don't care! Those are my thoughts anyway!

We cannot mourn him or her in person, so social sites seem to occupy the place of a mass funeral rite. I was not a fan of Michael Jackson but I was definitely shocked by his death. Fans may have probably swarmed over facebook or twitter and detractors may have had their day criticizing this important musician.
