When I Was Young

I don't find this funny, or amusing even just a bit…

I was really waiting for the reply from the prince, and it has come, with a big bang, worth 105m ringgit worth of a defamation suit against the runaway wife and her mother.

What can I say? A common citizen like me can't even imagine of a half-a-million bucks under my name here on earth… what's with a 'measly' 105m ringgit?

Anyway, the summary of the news story is here.

Now I'm waiting for Aug 2, for the continuation, if not the final, of the Pinot vs Prince story.

I was following the news on Michael Jackson, his sudden death, the world's reaction, and ripples of reaction that followed after, shooting up sales of MJ's various products, a look at his estates, his properties, his debts, not to mention the facts and mysteries surrounding his death… then his will.

His father was not even mentioned anywhere in the will, but that doesn't change their relationship.

La Toya, Michael Jackson's elder sister, tells of a 'murder', or as she tells, 'killing' of MJ for his money.

Then it was the father's turn to speak. Notwithstanding he and Michael's relationship, which is known that they are not in good terms, which may have made MJ not to include him in his will, when he spoke about his son, you can see the heart of a father.

That is what I was waiting for.

A father's heart – despite everything else, takes precedence.

This is a recovering post, a late one, that is.

Anyway, long time ago, many years back, when La Toya Jackson grabbed the limelight, it was again on a very controversial issue: she wrote a book.

And just what is so controversial about that book?

It was supposed to be a book about the Jackson family secrets.

Back then, I was thinking to myself, why become famous at the expense of your family.

That is past. Now she again grabbed the limelight:

Accusing some greedy handgers-on of 'killing' his brother Michael Jackson for his money.

How true is that?
