#1 I hear Michael could use it; he's close to Chapter 11 territory.

#2 If the Jacksons were Islamic the rest of the family would've done an honor killing on his (her?) ass a long time ago

#3 The irony of the Jackson case is that if he is convicted, he'll spend the rest of his life in jail (personally, that's where I think he belongs, for a LOT of reasons, including the current case). There, all his expensive medical treatment and tomfoolery won't do him an ounce of good. What could be more fitting?

#4 Whacko may just be angling for a spot in one of those madrasas. He probably found out they're full of impressionable young boys, so he wants a piece of that action.

Q: what do Wal-Mart and Michael Jackson have in common?

A: they both have boy's pants half off.

#5 Technically I think he is just plane nuts. He needs a good place (Chattahoochee FL comes to mind) where he can run, and play and sing but not wonder too far.

#6 With respect to MJ jokes let's not forget that Elton John and Jacko are due to release a duet cover entitled: Don't Let Your Son Go Down on Me.

With respect to homosexual behavior in Islamic cultures I heard once that Egypt tolerates homosexual experimentation by 20 something-ish men with young boys. I don't remember the source, but the gist of the article was that Egyptian men could rarely afford wives until the men reached the age of 30 so pedophilia was a quasi way for them to achieve sexual release prior to marriage. I guess it's simular to how some men don't consider prison sex to be homosexual sex.

If Egyptian pedophilia is an actual quasi-accepted cultural institution, then I have run across another example of a cultural practice that I am just not hardwired to understand.

#7 some men don't consider prison sex to be homosexual sex.

In the bizarre and at the same time tragic world of street youths in Brazil, you're only considered homosexual if you're on the receiving end.
I know Jacko is weird and probably needs to be restrained from coming within 100 metres of anyone below the age of 15, but has anyone considered that this is just another extortion attempt? Apparently Jacko was financially supporting this kid's mother, and these allegations came out after Jacko stopped the payments. In any case, seems wacko Jacko still hasn't learned the lesson from the first time around he got in shit.

#8 has anyone considered that this is just another extortion attempt

Maybe MJ's nose fell off and he was just looking in that boy's pants for it.
