The day after two icons pass away – there is much to reflect on. Matt Lauer gave me a lot to think about this morning, as did MTV’s Sway – whose soothing voice drifted me off to sleep.
So I decided that, today, I am going to recap some things that The King of Pop and The Queen of Sex Symbols have taught me.
1. Red is, by far, the best swimsuit color.
2. White, on the other hand, is preferred for gloves.
3. Glass balls floating behind your head creates a magical effect people will remember for ages.
4. When they say ‘why, why?’ tell ‘em it is human nature.
5. “The reason that the all-American boy prefers beauty to brains is that he can see better than he can think.” Farrah was so wise.
Other contributions:
- Justin Timberlake
- The highly underrated ‘Charlie’s Angels’ film (which I’m convinced would never have been made had Farrah not been in the TV show).
- Yearly Thriller Dance at Zombie Walk here in Portland.
- Subsequently, the Thriller Dance done by Filipino prisoners.
RIP Farrah and MJ.
Now, if you’ll excuse me – I am going to drink myself into oblivion this weekend and spend a LOT of time singing karaoke.

Why, Why? Doobie Doobie that way….
I don’t know the words and I’m too important to google.

LOVE this post! I think I might be linking to it/recommending it because you’ve managed to capture some of the best bits of both icons… at least I think so!
