If you're playing along with this fun meme today, be sure and link up here!
1. Where were you when you heard that Michael Jackson died?
I had just woken up from a nap, and my phone was bleating about a text message. I looked at it as soon as I woke up, and it was from one of the hosts of the morning radio show I sometimes listen to, announcing his death. I shouted it out loud to Rob, who already knew, and then it was all over the news. I was shocked. I still am.
2. How do you think that he will be remembered?
Well, for some folks, obviously for being a pedophile. But for me and for many others, he will always be a great music legend.
3. What was your favorite Jackson tune?
Hard to say. There are so many! I guess maybe "Thriller," because the video is killer. Hey, I'm a poet.
4. Did you watch the original Charlies Angels?
I think I did. I'm only 32, but I'm pretty sure I remember watching sometimes. Kate Jackson was my favorite. I don't really remember Farrah or Jaclyn Smith.
5. Did someone you know have that poster of Farrah?
Nope, not that I know of, anyway.
6. Did you consider her battle with cancer heroic?
I guess I would consider anyone who fights a serious disease a hero.
7. Where you a fan of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson?
Of course, wasn't everyone? I loved him.
8. Did you like Ed McMahon on the show?
Honestly, I don't really remember him on there (age again, I'm sure), but I remember him on Star Search and for Publisher's Clearing House, with Dick Clark. I loved Star Search!
9. What else will you remember Ed McMahon for?
Oops, I guess I just answered that question.
RIP, all - and you too, David Carradine!
Fin.
I remember Ed McMahon most for Star Search, which I also loved! Happy Saturday to you. :)

It is sad that people would want to remember Jackson a s pedophile before anything else.
Good list.
