N Korea just test fired two more missiles but there's been hardly any discussion at all because MJ's glove is up for auction.

Seems all the important news has taken a backseat to Michael! Al Sharpton wants to declare a National Day of Mourning for Michael on Tues. That is over the top.

I'd like to see all the Jackson fans here donate money towards his memorial service. So far I haven't found a page where you can donate, but I saw on TV CA is accepting them.

According to Wiki, Staples seats about 20,000 for a concert. After the 11,000 free tickets to the public, that leaves approximately 9,000 seats. It's possible, the celebs and other high earners may be making contributions. Just my thoughts on the subject.

Possible celebrities are making donations but I doubt it's going to cover the expenses.

There's going to be a lot of overtime cops and who knows what else for this.

I read that private donations eventually covered the Lakers' celebration. So, we'll see what happens. I read 1,500 cops have been asked to volunteer to work at the Memorial.

And at exactly 2:30pm (EDT), they plan to gather in one place to do a Thriller dance memorial for MJ.
