June 26


How surreal that Farrah Fawcett, icon of the 70's and Michael Jackson, icon of the 80's passed away on the same day. I had a poster of Michael in my bedroom when I was 13 from the Thriller years. I remember watching the Beat it video trying to memorize the dance moves so we could do them ourselves. My uncle Jerry had the famous Farrah poster in the red bathing suit in his room for years. I think Michael's death was due to the abuse of painkillers, and his perpetually being underweight his entire adult life, but we will see.
