Jacko and Shill

It’s been awhile since I posted anything, so I thought I would chime in on some current events.

Michael Jackson – Although I’m not too surprised he was found innocent on the molestation charges, I’m a little surprised he didn’t get nailed for allegedly serving alcohol to a minor, just to get him for something. Either way, from the interviews I’ve heard, it sounds like the jury made the right decision given reasonable doubt. For his sake, I hope he has learned a lesson or two. Something tells me we’ll see him again in court within the next 5 years, though. It will be interesting to see if he releases another album. People have short memories, so I think it would sell if it was any good.

Bush agrees to forgive $40bn in African debt – Thank goodness, because we sure don’t have financial problems in our own country! I say pay off our own debt, fix what’s broken in our own country, and then you can go play Mother Teresa. I don’t recall anyone ever offering to forgive my mortgage. Instead, I now have another debt to help pay off. Thanks Bush!
