• Got a call from the help desk at work. They wanted to know if Michael Jackson's death would impact our clients. #


• Okay, I'll be exclusively on the TiVo for the next week. Let's see, Cold Case, Burn Notice, Royal Pains ... I'm good. #MichaelJackson #


• I sure am glad I sprung for the expanded hard drive for the TiVo. I'll be able to watch something other than Michael Jackson now. #


• The cat is meowing loudly and scratching at the front door. She must be upset over the news about Michael Jackson #MichaelJackson #


• I just heard about Michael Jackson. Anybody know if any of the news channels have the story? #MichaelJackson #

• Squirrel ran out in front of the truck. Wife had to slow down to the speed limit to avoid hitting it. #


• I keep hearing people say "don't speak ill of the dead." So no more Hitler comments! Got it?! #
