Is Ayatollah Khāmene’i a Michael Jackson fan?

He ought to be. Call me unfeeling, but when Iran really needs the eyes of the world to be held steady on its regime, why is "Michael Jackson Not Murdered" the main BBC headline this morning? Did anyone really believe that he was murdered?

Tomorrow: "Shakespeare not Bacon, claims scholar."

Call me also-unfeeling, but I'm afraid my first reaction was, "Well, no point watching the news for the next few days..."

There are some in town here who believe that his propensity to surround himself with quack physicians in his restless quest to make his body over into the image of Peter Pan did a whole lot of helpin' toward his end, so in that sense, yes, murder.
