Mo' money, mo' problems

As if chronicling the "desperate for publicity housewives of Atlanta" wasn't enough to scare common-sensed people off from pursuing the "elite" lifestyle that the Atlanta women claimed to be a part of, Michael Jackson rears his ugly-head (and I say "ugly head" only in jest since his masks don't allow one to be critical of his real appearance), dogged by yet another legal issue surrounding money, to remind us just how costly fame can be.

It must be difficult to live in a world where you can't tell the difference between a business loan and a gift- to the tune of $7M! Seems to me it should be pretty "black and white".

Who lives in this kind of world? Dr. Seuss, Daddy Warbucks and Big Poppa? How can one not know the difference, a $7 million dollar difference, between a gift and a loan? That is simply mind-boggling! Was a birthday card presented and inside it said, "Sorry Michael, I couldn't think of what surgery to get you, I hope you can forgive me for just gifting you $7 million dollars. Love, the Sheikh."

Sadly, Michael claims to be too ill to travel to London for the lawsuit- it'll be interesting to see how this one plays out; I doubt a new cd will emerge from the ashes of this business venture, Mr. Sheikh. Perhaps the Jackson lad's financial troubles could become part of the bailout plan? A new way to save Motown!

But seriously, how the heck is this man solvent? I've watched the "TLC" VH-1 story on how to go broke (poor lefty eye) and cried along with Toni Braxton (unbreak her bank account) while trying to keep her Grammy awards from the IRS. And yet MJ still has some Benjamin's to roll with? Maybe he should be the one dispensing those $700 billion bucks to save the USA! Or make a charity record, "We R the Brokedown World" USA4USA! Oh wait, that's where this whole $7million dollar issue started- making records!
