I Can See It Now

Neverland morphs into Graceland.
 
The King of Pop is buried on the grounds. His home is open to the public. For as little as $99 a day, you too can ride on Michael’s rides; tour his bedroom and bathroom; have your picture taken at his gravesite; buy his CD’s and more.
 
How much do you want to bet that Neverland is now the final resting place for Michael Jackson and that it becomes the new hot tourist attraction a la Graceland?

I thought the CNN newscaster was going to slug Mr. Jackson.
 
Click here and check this one out. Any wonder why Michael Jackson didn’t want to go home again. Ever wonder why Michael Jackson reveled in self-loathing? Well here you go. “Thanks Dad.”
