So it's weird living right by the UCLA medical center. I was on the shuttle back home when the bus driver stopped as a small crowd and crew of reporters crowded the new Reagan medical center.
"MJ is in the hospital due to cardiac arrest" said Driver Bill. Our doctor friends tell us he was probably gone by around 12 but that they kept him on the shockers til 3...(usually it is useless after about an hr and a half). It's sad to see such a huge american idol leave us.
My favourite memories will always be Mickey Jee as the scarecrow in The Wiz (musical version of wizard of oz)...along with my black keyboard i received as a kid that came with the Autosong "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" and a music book with THIS picture on the cover: (see above)
...CLASSIC JACK
To focus on a slightly brighter (though still bitter-sweet) side, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who has always been a hottie since his 3rd Rock from the Sun days is Still Awesome. According to non-reliable sources (aka wikipedia) he is Jewish and 28. In Da Punch terms, he's Quite Desirable (QD!).
"500 days of Summer" is a ridiculously true-to-life journey of changing jobs (following your passions) and falling for someone-liking them more than they will ever like you.
It's painful to watch due to the real-factor. The entire character of Tom goes through the slow meet, the crush, the set-up of knowing what he's getting into, the falling, and the crash. I wanted to cry in a slightly heart-pang-y way (as in the movie "UP") but my shoulder-buddy was not around so I managed to keep cool. My strings are still sore from being pulled, and relating to this movie is like going through those feelings all over again. Worth it, but sucky. Swurtky.
It's almost 2 am. Watch it, you won't regret it. And men, Zooey Deschanel is in it. And she looks the same, live, so...
