Track 30: We'll Be Moonwalkin'

How ya be my lovely Blogger?

'Tis I, your bad-ass...random-ass....soaked ass Headphones, here to bring one of my random rambling of a blog because frankly I ain't got better shit to do then just sit here on the computer and look at videos of Michael Jackson's old performances which are still great today, um....cats fighting then watching another vomit, turtles having sex which is fuckin' hilarious by the way (This is what I do while you're at work lol and yes I did actually watched these videos). So let's get this shit crackin' SHALL WE?!

First off, I'm not in a good mood because I'm still pissed at the 86 Metro bus for straight leaving my ass and duex it's very cold, deary and wet outside cause it's raining and it's October and it's Fall but it feels like Winter. So cold and rain and me do not mix well today....no no no...but the silver lining in all this inanity of it all is that I finally got my little fangirlish hands on Michael Jackson's one and only 1988 auto-biography 'Moonwalk' which was re released on Tuesday in a special 2009 edition which feature a new foreword by founder of Motown Records Berry Gordy. I almost thought I wouldn't have been able to get it because I thought I'd be a nickel short of the price but thankfully my giftcard my mom gave me for my birthday (THANKS MOM YOU JUST BOUGHT ME $100 WORTH OF MJ BOOKS LMAO) had enough to cover the change and I had enough to cover the remaining amount so yes I am proud owner of said book lol...

Now, as of right now I'm currently killing time in my school's computer lab because frankly I'm in no mood to walk through the rain and wait for a bus so I'll take a later one because this is how much I love my blog...so I thought I should update it once in a while I mean just because Miss Cougar can go on hiatus doesn't this spic should lol j/k j/k j/k....I just win I had money for food ;_; lol....Although this is perfect weather to be listening to 'Stranger in Moscow' -le sigh-

Anyways, I want to write that I found out that this guy who worked at my mom's job had died from I think a rare form of Lupus so condolences to his family. This guy was short little Asian man like half my height (not being racial speaking the truth) and he was just plain adorable lol and I can't believe he's gone I mean I was sad when he quit but to hear he died is just one big plain ouch. Also Al Martino from The Godfather who sings "Speak Softly" which is one of my favorite song died two days ago at the ripe old age of 82 so Al you'll be missed by this chick....

This brings me to what's been buggin' me these past weeks even months. Why can't a person just die in peace overall...I'm not wishing death on anybody I'm posing a rhetorical question. But I mean no matter what the circumstances are surrounding their death whether it be suicide, cancer, drug O.D., or whatever...can't they just pass on and be done with...For the pass 3-4 months I felt as though I haven't been able to properly mourn MJ's death because the media is constantly talking about it and sometimes without fair views...Instead of just being sad I keep getting angry because of the media's way of reporting on anything Michael it then reaches the fans and in turn the fans go crazy with angry and sometimes I feel some of them are blind to the reality of it all...People are coming out of the woodwork releasing books on MJ and some are being labeled traitors and money making scumbags, the upcoming "This Is It" is being boycotted by some being labeled as a way to make money of his name, conspiracy after conspiracy as to what really killed MJ, and so on and so forth...

Here's my take on this whole situation

On MJ-related literature: Half of these people will write anything that can keep the readers attention and some (not all) will say they did research, they investigated, they interviewed said witnesses. Case & Point, Ian Halperin wrote a book that was released a week or so after Michael had passed and it made some very huge claims such as Michael was gay and used women as a cover, the kids aren't really his, he used hard-core drugs, and of course no book on MJ is ever completed without the infamous molestation trials. I was like some a person downright said I WILL NOT BUY THIS BOOK!! NO WAY IT IS PURE BULLSHIT!! I WON'T GIVE A DIME TO THIS MAN!! But of course I relented and got the book and I felt guilty for reading this book but as I read through it I realized something...I was right this book was pure bullshit lol...but the point is that I read a book that had huge claim but nothing really solid to back it up and here's my message. A person can write a horrible book but it is up to you as the reader to formulate your own conclusion. Going into a book you need to make sure that you read any book about MJ with an open mind because no matter what they throw at you...even if it sounds plausible you don't believe it unless you hear it from the man himself and now that he's gone we'll never some of the answers but the authors sure as hell can try to and answer...

Making Money Off of MJ's Name: Do some people realized that when you buy MJ merchandise that has been approved by the estate that some of the money goes to HIS estate which means to HIS kids. So to boycott the "This Is It" or any other product is just non-sense because you'll actually be denying the estate money which turn no money for his kids or for the charities. And for what some self-satisfying feeling that you didn't allow the corporates to sway you into buying their money making products because they're exploiting MJ's name...I'm not defending the corporates and I'm not using the kids to ensue guilt I'm merely just being realistic. This is like a double edge sword if a person releases anything of MJ we don't know what they'll gain out of it they're labeled a 'money making scumbags' but nothing is released no money goes to the estate. I admit I'm very disappointed in SONY for how they're treating MJ's music and I would love to see MJ's fan take that eyesore down to the ground.

Conspiracy: We can all hope and pray and do dark magic and give anything to have MJ back alive but unfortunately fate is a cruel bitch. As we all know his death was labeled a homicide and the primary target of focus is Dr. Conrad Murray who was with him the day he died. To me that is who I blame for MJ's death...he was there in that room and he was the one who stuck the drip in his arm and he is the one I want punished. But I hear these people giving us elaborate conspiracies that involved people that we're out to lay there hands on MJ's money and they actually believed this like it's the holy word and label people who want to deny it or challenge it as not being a true fan. Just because I don't want to believe does not give you the right to challenge me on whether I am a true fan or not because they is no ten commandments to follow to make you a so call true fan. I loved MJ with all my heart but I am a person who wants facts and hard evidence. Show me a video or audio of these people actually talking about killing MJ but it is not a crime just to say I WANT TO KILL MICHAEL JACKSON! If there is evidence of a plot to kill him then it is labeled a crime. All these conspiracies are no better than if you had written something for the tabloids and sold it for millions.

I've just had enough with all the questions about his death. I want him to be at peace, I want his children to be able to look at their father the way they always seen him, I want him to be remembered for being the greatest star in the world. Unfortunately with the way things are today...it's be a while before I'll be able to think of you Michael and just smile and laugh...

Well, I'm done with my ranting and again this is my take on the issues and my opinions which I am entitled to and should not be considered as me trying to pass off as facts. Some of what I say could be wrong. I'm sorry to be this way lol must be the weather but anyways I've finished in the nick of time since I have to go and I managed to finished a blog in the allotted time OMG I'm so proud lol. So, now I'm off to go home, get warm and make some soup for me to enjoy while I read my books. I'll end my song here and take my bow...so until next time my loves...Farewell, so long, adios, adieu, sayonara.....

Love & Peace

Track 29: Oh The Randomosity of Halloween!

*staring at profile pic of MJ goodness*OH! I didn't see y'all there....What is good my lovely Blogger! 'Tis I, Headphones, back again double the random, double the Spanish (for your info books, I'm Mexican-American just a little fun fact for ya), double the spaziness. I'm here to bring you joy and laughter because frankly I ain't got nothing to complain about really.....yet....Alright so anyways I'm bouncing around and going Off The Wall and really I have no clue I dunno guess it must be the Life cereal (MMM CINNAMON GOODINESS) but these past days were good.

Saturday, I went to the movies with my dad to see that Michael Moore Documentary Capitalism: A Love Story. It actually wasn't that bad...it was eye-opening but I kept getting lost lol and for any Family Guy fans in here it's like this....While watching the movie I kept hearing people laugh at some of the references Michael Moore had made and I thought "this is just like the season primere episode of Family Guy when Brian and Stewie are stuck in that Washington Post comic and Brian is the only one laughing at it....Stewie has it right....S.....T....F....U! lolSo anyways afterwards we went SHOPPING!!! at the grocery store bleh! Not fun....what is fun is going to the mall down the road which is housed to Books-A-Million and f.y.e (For the some who don't know these place it's like a low scale version of Borders or Barnes & Noble or any shop that is a primary bookstore lol and f.y.e is like a low scale Best Buy lol). So freshly strapped with a gift card to the bookstore I set foot into it and set off to find me some MJ....which I did find....I managed to pick me up the Hardcover Versions of the LIFE and PEOPLE tribute magazines to MJ which is awesome and I found a really nice paperback tribute by Whitman it's called MICHAEL JACKSON: The World Says Good-Bye To The King of Pop and it's basically a book of quotes from all the celebrities in the music industry as well as a few fans from all over the world....and it has some beautiful pictures too...last but not least I also found the book by Bruce Swedien "In The Studio with Michael Jackson which I can't wait to read after I've finish Randy T.'s book. So after I make the purchased the woman ringing me up state of course the obvious....you must be a Michael Jackson fan which of course I said yeah that's me...lol and she was really cool she told me about the new book by the Rhabbi and how that may be the only book that isn't out to trash MJ's image unlike others....like I told her about the Unmasked book and she was like "when I saw I was like no...." then of course the molestation cases came up and she stated that she was ashamed of the families for taking the money because if she was the parent and he DID do it she'd want to see him behind bars. I agreed with her...don't scold her because she's entitled to her own opinion and like her if our kids were molested we'd want the offender behind bars even if he is famous....we can't let fame blind justice.....but that's all I got to say really....

Getting back to the title of this blog...I'm on a mission to create MJ's Smooth Criminal outfit for Halloween but I've decided to turn it into something new so I'm taking two of my favorite performances which are Smooth Criminal and Dengerous and combining them into one....so now instead of traditional blue/white I'll be black and red....so today I went shopping after class since I wanted to exchange my new military jacket for a bigger looser size and now I'm in heaven which I hope I can wear to see This Is It lol. Then, off to Payless Shoes where I bought BOOTS (sorry...boots make me squee) and on the plus these boots look almost like loafers and are a dream to moonwalk in ....I bought a new tribute shirt but unfortunately need to exchange that so two out of three ain't bad lolSo as of right now I'm happy because I've managed to complete more of my mission and since this costume idea it'll be a snap *snap* (I just hope people don't condem me for remixing a classic hm) as of right now I need a red shirt, red socks, suspenders, and spats...and with that I've finished with my randomosity and I'll leave you with you mind in a puddle...Until then....

Love & Peace

Track 28: New Look For The Blog & Birthday Run Down

What it do lovely Blogger? 'Tis I, Headphones, coming at your with my 27th blog which is kinda of a shocker since the most I've ever blog was like 12 so yeah...I must really like this place....so let's get to business....SHALL WE?!

So anyways as you may have noticed (well obviously lol) I have changed up my blog with a new header and new colors of blues and blacks to match the theme of the new header which features the late King of Pop Michael Jackson from the "They Don't Care About Us". It's one of my favorite song of MJ's from the HIStory album. The song really fits to how I feel about today's society overall from the government to the future of today's children. The quote is from Scream which is another song I love and it also show my stand on today's society. But anyways I made the background as a late tribute to Michael Jackson. So Michael this blog is dedicated to you....

Speaking of tribute, Michael's third month anniversary since his passing just so happened to fall on my birthday September 25. Yes, I have turned the big 19 and I must say I felt somewhat bittersweet since that morning I had my Computer Info System class and that was just plain super boring so I just couldn't wait for that class to end so I can just get home and relax and fall asleep to MJ which I did until I had to go to the eye doctor....not cool.....

So I did go to the doctor and stayed there for like 4 hours but up side of it I got some new glasses (yes I'm a nerdy nerd nerd lol) and got my old pair fixed so I got two working pairs....Plus, all day long I've gotten Happy Birthday texts and looked on my Facebook and saw loads of them so just wanna say a big thanks to all those who took the time out to wish a happy birthday lol. Afterwards, my bro took me out to eat but not without being in a car blasting nothing but Michael Jackson music because being the brother that he is he knows that I am a huge Michael Jackson fan YO! It's a great Japanese place called Sakura's and that place is awesome....entertaining and great food.....and can't end a meal without embarrassing the birthday girl by getting a piece of awesome cheesecake NOM NOM NOM!! Then I got home to catch what I could on the Dateline Special on MJ's Secret Tapes and then I went to the kitchen and realized something wasn't right and before I could run away I was caught and embarrassed again with another cheesecake with a printed picture of MJ (I had stated that if I could I'd want a cake with a picture of MJ on it) my bro called the cake a bootleg MJ cake so I could not help but feeling embarrassed and laughing. Because present to come aside from the dinner was my mom's...She gave me this beautiful coffee book of Michael Jackson chronicling his life and success :) to go with my Barack Obama book.....two men who have made History....

Next day Saturday I went out to breakfast with my mom and her two friends who happen to be sisters and my mom told the waitress that it was my birthday and I was like NOO!!! not again lol....but the waitress was like exasperated like "You were supposed to tell me when I was in the side kitchen so she wouldn't hear and before the meal" she was nice about it though she told me Happy Birthday and I was glad nothing happened...or so I thought....I was again embarrassed for the third time when the staff present me with a Birthday Sundae but it was delicious no less lol silly waitress but she was cool no less....That was it and I gotta say even though I didn't get a lot I was happy for once lol...

That's it for now....just wanted to share my birthday with y'all and I'll be back to blogging about the going ons and my take on everything so far....so until then....

Peace & Love
