When he was alive, the headlines were about how strange he was, how strange he looked, how strange he acted.... Now he is dead and all the people are being interviewed, saying they knew he was abusing drugs, they knew there were problems and they desperately tried to save him. Did they really do all they could? Now the headlines are all about him, news coverage 24/7, praising him, but at the same time, sensationalizing his finances, his lifestyle, his manner of death....
Millions of people are mourning his death, gathering in large crowds across the globe, buying tributes of flowers and other gifts to mourn his death.
Protestors are dying in Iran. Children are dying in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, and Darfur. Where are the millions protesting and spending money on tributes or aid? Is it that as individuals, we feel there is nothing we can do?

The media is a strange thing. There is turmoil in the world. wars etc.
I feel he is due his credit in his passing, but not to dominate the world news. I thought the same thing, you mocked him and put him down these recent years and now you Love him. (not you, the public) I won't deny what a talent he is musically, and the change in pop music he helped to change. It is the same old story, those around him knew he was in trouble medically and with medication and did they do all they could do? Just like Anna Nicole Smith and Elvis and so many others. Don't look at their status in the celebrity world, look at them as a human and help them.
And as humans, keep looking at what is going in the world.
I hope that your vet aspirated the lump on Brits chest. ALways a good thing to do, especially if it is increasing in size. The skin tag, always watch too. But the lump- keep an eye on it Cathy. Also is it hard, or fleshy feeling?
:) take care. let me know.
