I tried to get tickets for the service. I knew I would not be able to attend but I thot I would give them to someone who could attend or sell them on Ebay. Here is the email I got this morning.

Thank you for your registration.

Sorry, we regret to inform you that your registration to attend the Public Memorial Service for Michael Jackson was not selected.

Hundreds of thousands registered, but only a few can be in attendance.

I am off tomorrow and will probably watch some of it. How about you?
I hear some of the tickets are selling on Ebay for $150 k

Put him in the ground, already.

How long before someone tries to steal his body like they did with Elvis?

No, it will not be there. I agree, they need to find a place to bury him or cremate him and bury his ashes. It has been long enough that something needs to be done with his remains.

I would definitely sell a ticket for a few thousand on eBay if I got one.

I used to have MJ's Credit report as well as copies of his record contracts. Threw them away though :( I may still have a faxed signature of a paper with my name on it somewhere though.

Politician Calls Jackson a 'Pedophile'

In an attempt to raise awareness about the unrecognized efforts of U.S. teachers, police officers, veterans and volunteers, New York congressman Peter King decided to rip Michael Jackson apart in his latest YouTube video. King takes a swift jab at society for putting Jackson on a pedestal, calling the singer a "low life" and "child molester."
"There is nothing good about this guy. He may have been a good singer and did some dancing, but the bottom line is would you let your child or grandchild be in the same room as Michael Jackson?" King said.

The Republican congressman believes that the media is to blame for the "day in and day out" coverage of Jackson's death and is "too politically correct."
"Let's knock out the psycho babble. He was a pervert. He was a pedophile... No one wants to stand up and say, 'We don't need Michael Jackson,'" King said.
Adding that there are Americans dying every day in Afghanistan, King says our society should be spending more time focusing on the true heroes and less on Jackson. "What are we glorifying him for? ...We shouldn't be glorying some pervert," he said.

You and me both. The amount of talent that will be there would be cool to see. I wonder if they'll do a Pay-per-view to help with his estate? 8)

I heard today that his brain is being kept for research and will not be buried with him.

FQ,

It is not being reported as being kept for research but for continued autopsy. Some toxicology tests would take a couple more weeks and the family has opted to bury the body without the brain instead of waiting the additional two weeks for autopsy tests.
