Breaking: The King Is Dead

Even though he's sort of been dead in a way for many years, it's still hard to see in print. (Two icons of our generation in one day seems almost unimaginable.) Sadly, I guess it almost had to end this way. (NYT) UPDATE: Family friend Brian Oxman is on TV talking about extensive abuse of medication and MJ's "enabling" staff.

(They say stars always die in threes. If I were Joyce Bulifant I sure would tread lightly for the next few hours.)

Everyone is sad....except for Gov. Mark Sanford who got pushed off the front page.

I never believed the old saw about death coming in threes, but I hear that Walter Cronkite is hanging by a thread. That will be a sad day indeed.

Joyce Bulifant? You are deliciously funny!

At work we said Ed McMahon was the first of the three.

I'm with Richard, it was Ed McMahon. I'm waiting for the mash up remix of Charlie's Angels, Beat it, and "Heeeere's Johnny!"
