"June 8, 2005: Michael Jackson fan Myra Julliette holds large heart signs in support of the pop star near the Neverland Ranch in Los Olivos, Calif."

1. Just replace...

"Michael" with "Bush" and you get a Freeper. :crazy:

2. You know, I've got several artists that I truly like and adore

I've even roamed the Deadhead circuit on and off for a couple of years in my younger days. But I've never become so obsessed that I give up my job, my life to go show support for said artist, day in, day out for weeks and months. It just baffles me that people are so obsessed over people like Jackson, especially since his salad days were twenty years ago, and the man has gotten increasingly weirder in the interim.:shrug:

Frankly, I'm willing to give the man the benefit of the doubt, innocent until proven guilty, I would do that for anyone. But I'm not going to put my own life on hold for any artist facing a trial. I just find this sort of behaviour to be a bit bizarre. But hey, I suppose to each their own.

3. those people are like a cult

I came across one of that sort once. She said that anyone who ever met Michael would know right away that he was the most beautiful and spiritual person -- all Love. She was very stubborn on this point.

This was a bright and talented woman, but there was that one little region of her mind that reason could not touch.
