Michael Jackson Saga Continues

The new claim is that neither Michael Jackson or Debbie Rowe are the biological parents of his children, Michael Jr. or Paris. Neither Michael's sperm nor Debbie's eggs were used. Debbie was just a surrogate, however the sperm used was the Doctor Debbie used to work for, Dr. Arnold Klein (Dermatologist).

On another note, Dr. Arnold Klein is now being investigated by the LAPD for the possibility that he also wrote Jackson several prescriptions in the last few months prior to his death.

This story just keeps getting weirder by the minute.

What the "DUCK"?

Farrah Fawcett


Farrah Fawcett was laid to rest today after her 3 year battle with cancer. She had a private/invitation only funeral in California this afternoon. Farrah's longtime partner, Ryan O'Neal, organized the services and her son Redmond O'Neal was also able to participate.

I highly recommend watching "Farrah's Story" http://www.hulu.com/watch/73354/farrahs-story as she chronicles her battle with anal and liver cancer. It is a heartbreaking story but shows the true side of what cancer does to your body and spirit.

May you rest in peace Farrah and hopefully "on a rainy day, God will let you dip your wings in the rain"!

Michael Jackson's Children

Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine wants custody of his children and the family attorney is going to court today to get the ball rolling. For the kids sake I hope that she does get them, but I do have concern over the involvement of Michael's' father, Joe Jackson. Solely my opinion, but I don't know that Joe is such a good role model. My hope is that they are placed in a loving and safe environment and that the three children will remain together. How detrimental would it be for them to be separated? That would be so heartbreaking.

Bernie Madoff Sentenced

Bernie Madoff has just been sentenced to 150 years in prison for his massive Ponzi scheme. He must serve 80% of the sentence and would not be eligible for parole until 2129, basically the rest of his life will be spent in prison.

Billy Mays - UPDATE

Autopsy results are in for Billy Mays who died over the weekend, and head trauma was not the cause. It seems as if he had hypertensive and arteriosclerotic disease of the heart, which lead to his untimely death.

Pitchman, Billy Mays Dies

Pitchman, Billy Mays, best known as the OxiClean guy, died over the weekend at the age of 50. Billy was coming back on a US Airways flight when luggage hit him from the overhead compartments after a rough landing. It seems the front tires blew out which caused such a landing. It's not clear yet if that had anything to do with his untimely death, but he is expected to undergo an autopsy today which should give answers as to what caused it.

Governor Mark Sanford


Should Governor Mark Sanford resign? Does his personal life interfere with his ability to run the state? Should he resign for the extramarital affair, or for leaving the state without putting the 2nd in line in charge, or both?

Lots to talk about...

There are a lot of things to talk about from the weekend, but first and foremost is about my weekend. Here lately they have been fabulous! I love it when I can leave work on Friday afternoon and not leave the house until Monday morning. Our family has been spending the weekends at home taking care of things around the house and just hanging out. It has been wonderful. Most of the time we don't even turn on the TV, as we spend the majority of the time outside or playing inside.

How was your weekend? Did you do anything exciting or relaxing?

TRIBUTE TO THE KING OF POP, MICHAEL JACKSON


Whether you love him or hate him, you can't deny that the world has lost one of it's biggest Pop icons on the planet. In the next few video clips, I hope to highlight his most memorable moments.

This is where it all began for Michael Jackson, when he performed on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1969.


In 1970, he appeared once again on the Ed Sullivan Show and put the Jackson 5 on the map with their song, "ABC".


In 1973, Michael grabs his first number 1 song as a solo artist with "Ben".


In 1984, Michael performs "Billy Jean" at Motown's 25th Anniversary and introduces us to his signature dance move - The Moonwalk.


In 1988, Michael WOW's us at the Grammy's with his rendition of "The Way You Make Me Feel" and "Man In The Mirror".


In 1992, Michael hits the stage and performs "Smooth Criminal" on his "Dangerous Tour".


In 1993, Michael performs at the Superbowl XXVII Halftime Show.


In 1995, Michael joins Slash, the lead guitarist from Gun's & Roses, on stage at the MTV Music Awards.


Fast forward to March 5, 2009 when Michael announces his final curtain call with a tour that was to originally kick off July 8th in Europe. Unfortunately, that day never came.

Jermaine Jackson announces the death of The King Of Pop, Michael Jackson:

RIP MJ!

Did you know every 9 1/2 minutes a person is infected with HIV? Saturday, 6/27 is National HIV Testing Day. Go to www.hivtest.org to find your nearest testing center.

107 Degrees - OH MY!

My car is registering 107 degrees - ridiculous!

Don't Cry For Me Argentina

Oh Jesus, I'm so freakin' sick of Cheater Cheater Pumpkin Eaters. I am sick of it! It's day after day, week after week that you hear of someone else who's stepped out on their marriage. I feel the same way my friend Stephanie feels when she said, "Is there not any role models out there anymore?". The most recent dumb ass is Governor Mark Sanford of South Carolina. Not only did he cheat, but this guy left the Country over Father's Day weekend (he has 4 young boys), without telling anyone where he was headed. It's bad enough you cheat on your wife, but it's just outright selfish to leave your children over Father's Day.

I was so glad to see that his wife was not standing by him during his speech earlier this afternoon:

Irish Cuisine

I have to make a dish tomorrow for my daughters school and it has to be a dish from her culture. Our family is Irish so I need some ideas on what to make. Any suggestions?

The only thing in my head is "Irish I Had A Beer"! LOL!
