“The King” and the “King of Pop”

At least the Chairman of the Board didn’t have to go through all this messiness, the dirt and grime of an early unexplained death, but the deaths of both “kings” are eerily similar.  That Michael Jackson married Lisa-Marie Presley is an interesting footnote in history.

If Mr. Jackson meant to take his life he certainly was selfish, hurting his children irreparably.  Even as an unfortunate accidental O.D. it was irresponsible as he had three children to care for.

Yes, we are the same age and I bought Teen Beat magazine when he and other teen idols were in it.  Was he relevant in the 80’s and did he do good work on We Are The World for Africa?  Yes, he did.  Kudos.  After that life seemed to catch up with him and he entered a downward spiral.

Life caught up with Elvis, too, and he left his family too soon.  These icons are not heroes, they’re victims.  Ten years from now we’ll be having Michael Jackson sightings along Arizona roadways or wherever.

It’s time to cook and think about today, instead of yesterday.  Cheers, Dee
