Michael Jackson will be missed...

On June 25, 2009 we lost the King of Pop. Today is the scheduled memorial service at the Staples Center in LA. Wish I could be there! I will certainly be watching the live broadcast at 10am Cali time. Guess you could say, I'm really grieving the loss. Funny, that my kids really love him too...been exposing them to his music for the last couple weeks via youtube & ipod. Wish MJ was still here doing his thing!

In an article, regarding all the traffic coming into the Staples Center area today:

"All those involved say the heart of Los Angeles will become a circus.

In one way, that characterization will be literal. Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey starts a run at Staples Center on Wednesday, a booking long planned in advance. In the pre-dawn hours before Jackson's memorial, the elephants started walking from the train station to the arena. They were set to arrive some five hours before the memorial."

That same circus just left San Antonio Monday.
