The singer had been staying at the LA house while he rehearsed for his comeback tour. More than 750,000 tickets had been sold for the former King of Pop’s “This is It” concerts. The opening dates were postponed last month after concert promoters AIG said Jackson needed more time to rehearse the complex dance routines. But after The Sun revealed that he was suffering from skin cancer there were fears that he was not fit enough to complete the tour.

Clearly ... AIG was a proximate cause of Michael Jackson's death.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('DoomWarrior', 'H')e died of cardiac arrest ... caused by what?


He's been training for his O2 shows with Lou Ferrigno, believe it or not.

I think he was just too frail as a 50 year old man to pull off the old dance moves and he pushed it too hard.

Hopefully they won't blow it and do a full autopsy so we won't have a bunch of rumors circulating.

Now that MJ is dead, it's kind of appropriate for the world's most infamous insurance company to have been covering the show, don't you think?

Or a record lable looking for some sympathy "back from the grave" hits.

I wonder if AIG took out seperate insurance for the london concerts? 8O

P.S. my posts have been mooved twice now...from Open to "out of this world" to psychology? :razz:

When I was young and the hormones started working me over Farrah was one of the beauties of the age. She was in Charlies Angels, Logan's Run, hooked up with Lee Major's from The 6,000,000 Dollar Man...

She was everywhere and well worth looking at, in a tasteful way. Seems like the young women of today are, well, kind of tasteless in how they present themselves.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Alfred Tennyson', 'W')e are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Billy "Oxy Clean" Mays died today just after I met him.

Postby flapjax » Sun 28 Jun 2009, 15:57:01

OK, so I met the Oxy Clean guy, Billy Mays yesterday while checking out newly bought property of some friends of mine. Turns out that this new yuppyville condo shared an elivator that attached to Billy's unit. I was a little gitty in meeting someone with such a popular face and was looking forward to running into him often to see what his world was all about and chat with him. We made a little small talk. I laughed as I spoke with my brother on how I was going to harras him and post it on you tube (very much just a joke). That was at 4:40 yeterday (Saturday). Now I'm reading this:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'M')ays, 50, was found unresponsive by his wife inside his Tampa, Fla., home at 7:45 a.m. on Sunday, according to the Tampa Police Department.

I must have the look of death of something.8O

No, he is no MJ but this is a little too strange for me beacause I just met him. I'm still WTFing. Just thought I would share this strange event.

I know, I just read this. I find this a far more devastating death than Pedo Jacksons.

Billy Mays was a great product spokesman and a hell of a character.
