WHACKO JACKO'S TALENT NOT TO BE MISSED, BUT.....

I never buy Michael Jackson products "new", so as not to put even a penny of royalties in his pocket. Instead, I buy them 2nd-hand on E-Bay. Why? While he's still rich enough that the little of my cash he'd get won't matter in the grand scheme of things, I refuse, on principle, to support with my personal $$, his "questionable lifestyle", which includes, if the documentation shown on Thesmokinggun.com is accurate, Jackson's seemingly intense sexual attraction to, and fondness for, very-underage, pre-teen boys. (Read the original court documents there yourself, if you doubt me).
Before any of this was known, of course, I'd been a fan of Michael's work since he was the leader of the Jackson 5 and I were both kids, (we're the same age).
I bought "Thriller", and saw The Jacksons live at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in 1984, on the group's "Victory Tour". The man's talent is huge, simply jaw-dropping, and this video collection is proof, especially the earlier videos, before his surgically-disfigured face resembled that of Lon Chaney's 1929 "Phantom of the Opera" movie character. (Google "Lon Chaney 'Phantom' images to truly understand this comparison.)
It's a damned shame that such an astonishing talent is apparently wrapped in so tragic a figure. Get some serious therapy, MJ--Your talents deserve better!
