to the glut of commentary on Michael Jackson...
the first time I saw him was at the Grammy awards in 1984. he came with child actor Emmanuel Lewis the first of many boys with whom he shared his life. so that's the image that remains.
there's no denying the man's talent. but he was a freak. I have terribly mixd feelings abt him.

I don't like the word freak to describe another human being. I much prefer to say that this was a person whose life was out of balance.
"life out of balance" i like that.
I'm a freak. I don't mind it. I was raised around circus people. In fact, it's one of the few labels I can tolerate.
RK/RL -- never liked circuses cause of the treatment of animals. but Gloria Grahame made them seem acceptable for 2 hours.
