I was always a fan of Michael Jackson, and obviously I think his death is a tragedy, but honestly I feel like it would've been better if he had died in the 80's, back when he was at the apex of his popularity. Because then we'd have awesome memories of him, as opposed to the memories of his multiple plastic surgeries, his whiteness, the child molestation accusations, his massive debt and general all around insanity.
Same thing with Elvis (nice segue), when we think of Elvis, we think of Fat Jumpsuit Elvis, not sexy hip swinging leather jacket Elvis, and that my friends is a tragedy.
This is why I feel that 2Pac dying so young was actually a good thing for his legacy, he didn't get a chance to mess it up! Pac is routinely referenced, paid homage to, and cited as one of the greatest m.c's of all time, despite the fact that he was an average rapper at best. However, dying at the height of his relevance and popularity has ensured that the general populace has fond memories of him, whether or not they're accurate is a completely different matter. If he were still alive today, would he be considered so relevant? Maybe. But look at two of his peers, Ice Cube and LL Cool J, formerly two of the biggest names in hip hop who are now best known for making sub par movies. In all fairness though, Ice Cube has managed to bounce back musically with Raw Footage, and he was really good in The Longshots, I highly reccomend it. LL Cool J has got nothin' though.
Have a nice day.

Hahahaha! Oh, Crazy Town, how you're sorely NOT missed. And did women EVER find Shifty Shellshock sexy? That man is allergic to wearing shirts.
I've really been getting back into a lot of the rap rock bands from the late 90's early 00's. I blame this on
laynestaleyrip and her Fred Durst obsession, haha!
In other news, I'm looking to get a cat. I miss having one, incidently enough Get Fuzzy is what really got me missing cats. Oh Bucky Katt you insane yet adorable sociopath.
Have a nice day.

Everyone knows that George Clooney is Hollywood's most eligible bachelor and has to date been successful in remaining in his bachelor state, but did you also know he is resolutely childfree? Here are some quotes from Clooney on being childfree:
"Even one kid running around my villa makes me nervous, so I'm definitely not a candidate for father of the year. If I need to surround myself with children and feel like I have this big extended family, I can always call Brad and Angie and ask them to stay with me, just to remind myself why I'm so happy."
"I could not do what Brad and Angelina are doing. I would not have the patience or dedication you need to take care of a family. I admire those qualities in other people but it is not for me...I am doing exactly what I want to. I hang out with the same friends, I spend time in Italy, and then I go back to work. I try not to worry about anything else.”
“People keep on asking me, ‘Don’t you want to have kids?’ I have not wanted to have kids. Then they say, ‘Aren’t you afraid of dying alone?’ But we all die alone. I remember Uncle George sitting in bed, 68 years old. He looked at me and said, ‘What a waste.’ … I came to the conclusion that I was not going to wake up one day in my 60s and say, ‘What a waste.’ I was going to grab as much out of this life as I could.”
According to one interview a few years ago, Clooney stated that actresses Michelle Pfeiffer and Nicole Kidman were so sure he'd be a dad someday, they bet money on it.
"They each bet $10,000 that I’d be a dad before I was 40. But I sent both of them back their cheques and said, ‘Let’s go double or nothing until I’m 50.’ So I’ll have to be careful with the ladies for the next six years. No wedding or kids."
Careful is right, George. Better make sure the condoms are strapped on real tight. I can only imagine the hordes of women who are beating his door down to make him a baby daddy.

I've been obsessed with a fictional character of my own making called 'goat guy' for a couple years now. Goat guy came about through my infatuation with the idea of Satan being a man with a goats head (yay! black metal album covers and imagery!)
Now, this is my second personal journal on lj, and I had no clue what to call it, and then I thought "waitaminute what about... GOAT GUY???" And thus a legend was born!
Have a nice day.

When I was 22 I swore I saw a jakolope.
Granted I'd had like, 2 hours of sleep...
Yeah.
It wasn't a jakalope btw. In case you were wondering. It was just a deer.
