Loki just climbed into a pillow (actually 2 pillows in one case, he's between the pillows) and is asleep. Weirdo. It's too warm to be pillow filling!

That Michael Jackson has been gone for a long time, but it's underscored now.
This is sadly true -- and I'm feeling halfway between shocked/sad and jokey/irreverant, I think because in my mind MJ is already long since gone.
Okay, back to real world problems.
To wit: what should I do with the garlic scapes I bought at the farmers market today? I mean, other than wear them around my wrists like weird alien bracelets.
MJ was a ridiculously great entertainer. I remember gathering around the TV for the Motown 25th anniversary special in the early 80s to see him perform. He did not disappoint. ita is right, though - that guy has been gone for a very long time.

NPR has an amazingly detailed piece playing right now - how did they put it together on a moment's (well, half-hour's) notice? (By Neda Ulaby, with whom I attended college, by the way.) Maybe they had something worked up because he had a tour coming up? I mean, nobody had him on the short list to die any time soon, right? He was 50. Kooky, but not sick.
