For those who don't recognize that line.  It comes from the musical Oklahoma.  It was the first thing that popped into my head this morning as I heard yet another report of the Michael Jackson memorial.  I am a little tired of the whole saga.
I grew up in the 80s.  He was a big deal then, and I have to admit enjoying some of the music he did.  But then I got older and he got weirder (is that a word?).  The insane focus that has been on him for the past week and a half is really over the top in my book.  He was just a person!
How sad it is that people have come absolutely unglued at his passing.  He is worshipped as a god.  How wrong and how sad that there is this much sorrow for a man who could do nothing for these people.  How different would the world be if they sought God the same way this human was sought and worshipped?  Just a little food for thought.

I too am very tired of MJ coverage. What I find absolutely fascinating is that Ferrah Faucet died the same day as MJ, and I would guess most people don't even know that, and yet she was a woman bravely battling cancer, and working to find ways to fight the disease....
hope you guys are doing well!!!!
