Red Blooded American Boy

This is a fantastic video of some high spirited Camp Staff, making dinner time more interesting. I give this five flags!

Media careers for reporters and paparatzi will be made. Pirates such as Al Sharpton will profit from the publicity surrounding the event. Unofficial books will be written and fabricated information will be spewed. Real and fake memorabilia will be sold and resold. Lawsuits will be filed and blame will be cast. All sorts of strange characters will crawl out from under the rocks to stake a claim.  Worst of all, the family (with the exception of Janet and the kids) will be looking to cash into the financial legacy that awaits.

Michael’s greatest glory will be created in the years to come as he is written into pop-music history by advertising opportunists.  Much of the hype will have no foundations in truth when he is lifted to a god-like status.  Truth will be portrayed as mystery and mystery will be portrayed as circumstance.  Rumors and rumors of rumors will be the daily chatter of those in the feeding frenzy.

Challenges to the creditability of the rewritten history will not occur.  First, it will be politically incorrect to downplay the importance of Michael Jackson in pop music history.  Second, it will be financial suicide for many to let him fade into history.  Enjoying the music and art of Michael Jackson will not be enough.  For Michael, it was all about the music.  Sadly, the music will be the least we hear from him.
