We lost two major pop culture icons today.  Farrah Fawcett passed this morning after a long bout with cancer, and Michael Jackson passed this afternoon after suffering a cardiac arrest.

I’m in total shock.  I was too young to get into the Farrah phase back in the 70s, but I respected her iconic status.  As for Michael Jackson – I’ve always enjoyed his music despite what went on in the rest of his life.  I’ll be listening to a couple of his albums over the next couple of days.  I think “Thriller” is still his best album, and probably the best pop album ever.  The video for “Thriller” is still my all-time favorite music video.

Rest in peace, both of you.

Stumble it!
