The local ABC afilliate just said that ABC is reporting that he is dead.  And, as one posted earlier, they are getting this from the Los Angeles Times.  That's sad

wiki says this on Michael's page

This page is currently protected from editing.

uhh..ok?

After doing a google search, every site that is saying Jackson is dead, has mentioned "TMZ reports..". 

As a type this, they are mentioning this right now on the local news.  They said he was taken to the hospital after going into cardiac arrest and not breathing. They had no mention that he is dead.

E! News is now reporting Michael is dead.

I wouldn't take TMZ seriously, either.  E! News?  maybe.  We'll just have to wait and see what happens.  Hopefully he is okay.

So far they are just saying that he was found not breathing, and has been rushed to the hospital.  Kind of scary.

I usually stick with JC Penny or Khols.  The only name brand clothes I get is usually from someone else (family)

I was flipping through and saw them being interviewed, but then I turned the channel before they performed.  I got tired of the show after season 1 and part of season 2.  Maybe I should have stuck with the channel for a few more minutes, they're good!

I'll tell you one thing about this heat, it takes EVERYTHING out of you.  I have been outside most of the day today and I am ABSOLUTELY exhausted.  It was 97 out today.  I should have hit the pool..stupid me

I saw him a couple days ago and thought he was OK, just ok.  Not really a big fan.

And here's a question about the pairings: why is Paul no longer with Alexandra? Did TWC just want to change things up, or is there another reason?

I am guessing they are wanting to change things up.  Abrams and Bettes in the morning, Nicole Mitchell in the evening.. yes, changing it up for sure.

Havn't been able to catch Weather Center yet, but what is Kevin Robinson's roll.  Is he just taking turns with Alexandra and Jim ( as in Alex does one segment, Jim does one, and Kevin does one?)  Just curious.

I am typing this on my new laptop computer.  My parents got it for me for my graduation, which is what I wanted more than anything for my graduation.  It is an "acer".  It;s a pretty nice laptop, and I love it.  I had to by the wireless router, but got a discount at the local retailer my parents work at   I love it!

Huge storm rolled through here yesterday.  I happened to be at work in another city and all we got was drenching rains and wind with thunder and lightning.  But my brother called me and said that there was some good sized hail that fell, and damaged part of our gutter, and really damaged a house just down the street.  Amazing.  More severe wx today, with a watch until 3PM.
