Jacko: Are my kidnappers coming to get me soon...

As they say, The Jury Is Still Out... but that doesn't mean that Jacko is going sit through the Verdict Stage or a possible sentencing.

Jacko operates above the law, or at least he believes that he does, for so damn long it's obscene. He's bribed his way out of many a legal scrape in the past (greasing the right palms is a way of life in most 3rd World countries, but it's steadily on the rise in the US, and has always been accepted -- if done right).

Unfortunately for Jackson, the public has already tarred and feathered The Gloved One -- a long fucking time ago. The head-scratching behavior that dude has exhibited for almost two decades now has numbed us to what's going on in Jacko's life. We been bludgeoned with so much "what the fuck is that?" over the years (particularly since Jacko has become a father) that at this point we just want to see what's going to happen, to see how this once-beloved figured swirls down the toilet with bubbly, brown shit percolating in the mix.

It's quite unheard of to have a society celebrant depcited with such abject cruelity, yet fascination and still

Sadly, Jacko's music career is DONE. Unlike people like Paul McCartney, the Rolling Stone and The Eagels, there is no Jacko tours that anyone what's see -- the music videos (an art form he helped create) is THE way we want to remember him. Not this wispy, rag-doll of a bitch-man that keeps showing up in court or on "how could you authorize that" TV specials. I read somewhere that Andre Hurrell (or maybe it was LA Reid) said he would work with Jacko on a music album -- bascially on GP.

I still think that Jacko needs to stage a kidnapping, then show up in Bali or Java late next summer with a whole new persona and then decide not to come back to the United States. All these fallen celebrities (notably the niggas, i.e. Orenthal James) paly themselves by remaining the US. A country that will bring its celebrities to highest pinnacle of fame and attention, but will relish the fall much more than the rise, it doesn't make sense to live out your the rest of your life with that history/baggage. People always asking, looking, pointing, just doing that dumb shit Americans do. Live someplace else where you can make your diminished fortune last longer.

I just want to know what Jacko is going to do once this is over -- what's his appeal going to look like if he does get convicted? What happens to Neverland Ranch?

The next week should tell us.
