Michael Jackson.. sigh!

archergirl · 02-16-2005, 03:21 PM

does anyone else think it was convenient of MJ to have flu-like symptoms (not flu) and have to be RUSHED to hospital just before court???

lookout123 · 02-16-2005, 03:25 PM

no, it is pretty much par for the course. you've gotta figure that he is having little boy withdrawals.

Edit: Hey UT - is there anyway to track how many different threads MJ has sparked in the Cellar's illustrious past?

Ah, the withdrawal method. Probably not the best way to avoid a trip to the hospital.

He probably gets the flu as often as kindergarten teachers.

If you ran a hospital and somebody filthy rich came in with the flu, wouldn't you keep them?

I'm sure that this is just a first of what will be a long line of delay tactics used by the MJ 'team', all designed to confuse and/or distort the real issues of why this trial is going on.

Sad, but I see this one going the way of the OJ trial.

lookout123 · 02-17-2005, 09:59 AM

are you suggesting that MJ is going to begin a lifelong quest looking for the "real molesters" on every golf course in the world?

garnet · 02-16-2005, 03:26 PM

I know that I've had the "flu-like symptoms" a bunch of times in my life, and I've never needed to be rushed to the hospital. Who goes to the ER when they have the flu, anyway? Suspicious, but then he's a suspicious kind of guy....

Hey, if your nose would fly off if you sneezed, you'd go to the hospital for flu too!

Now that was hilarious! I laughed out loud - I hope no-one heard me!

Did anyone else see Leno on Tuesday night? The media had reported Tuesday that a long list of celebrities - including Leno - were to be called as witnesses for the Jackson defense. Leno, either clueless about why, or a smart cookie, then delivered a sting of jokes sure to get him disallowed as a hostile or non-credible witness.

It was freaking hysterical, some of the funniest Leno stuff I've ever seen. Borderline offensive, in fact. It was great.

There is a picture circulating of Michael Jackson - the new Mr Potato head - selecting from a drawer the nose, eyes, etc he will wear in court.

Its rather sad. Had he simply first admitted to a problem and sought treatment, then the whole legal problem would have gone away.

I doubt that. If he'd admitted pedophilia and sought treatment, some parents of children he'd been alone with would have started the process even earlier, whether he'd acted on it or not. Pedophilia isn't like drugs in that way.
