update

Sorry gang, I sorta just fell off the face of the internet. But I am alive and heres a update on the account situation. I got in contact with the youtube partner help email and they are going to help me out. But the thing is they handle so many emails it might take awhile. Apart of me thinks my email got misplaced and I might have to resend it. I'm thinking I'll get my account in 2 weeks if everything goes well.

In other news. I went to Vancouver for 5 days to go cheak out my sisters husbands brothers wedding.

I'm still laid off. But I applied for EI.

I made some money off tetris.

What I've been doing lately is visiting the casino. I may have a gambling problem as I've been going every single day.... But the good news is I've been winning.

For videos, Got nothing. Hahaha sorry. I have a lot of free time but just don't feel like making them. I have video ideas that I think may go over well.

Also I would like to share my random thoughts on Michael Jacksons death.

MJ was one of my favorite artists of all time. I didn't jump on his band wagon just because he died. All my friends can tell you that. I was the only one listening to him in high school. All my burnt cd's had some MJ on there. But his death seemed to just go across like wild fire. People on youtube would make videos talking about his death and put advertisement on the video. Everyone knows its going to get a ton of views and I found that really disrespectful to earn money through someones death. Especially when you say "how great he was...".

Its not that big of a deal but I personally wouldn't put ads on a video that was a tribute to someone. Its like putting a advertisement on someones grave, thats how I see it. Its just to soon. To make a video like that and put advertisement on it.

It really bothered me and even one of the people I respect on youtube "Timothydelaghetto2" even made a video with advertisement in it.

Bottom line if you saying how great someone is. Don't piss on their grave by earning money off their death. Its like that one guy that made money off 9/11. Wow thats classy. I may throw a lot of profanity in my videos but I know where to draw the line if its respect.

MJ to me was great because he carried a lot on his back at a young age and then became one of the greatest performers of all time. If you know me, I love my underdogs and MJ and the jackson 5 were underdogs and I just loved how big they became. Now I'm not going to bull shit you and say I bought all of his records, cds, posters. etc. Im just a average fan that loved him in his prime. I'm talking about thriller and bad. I stopped listening to his newer stuff because it just didn't appeal to me.

Now my thoughts on his problems. I don't think he molested any kids, I think the kids wanted money and the reason why MJ paid the first kid off was he just wanted to get this over with, that backfired on him and his career took a nose dive. Thats why he battled against the 2nd molestation charge and won.

Now for the skin colour. I personally think he bleached his skin. It gets lighter and lighter if you look at the pictures. I think he just didn't want to be black because I think when he grew up he got a lot of racism and got picked on by his dad, thats where all his problems came from. He just didn't want to end up looking like his dad at all as he hated him. That explains why he basically destroyed his nose.

But the final word I want to say is MJ will never be forgotten. Mozart, Elvis and now Michael Jackson. He left his foot print on earth forver and people will always remember his music and his performances over all these scandals.

ah great thanks for the update.

but as for the mj skin thing, i truly believe he had a chronic skin disease. he was constantly putting on tons of makeup, and the lights on shows can be killer and even lead to skin cancer if youre under the lights enough. it got lighter because it can't all happen at once, it gradually builds up, like someones hair growing.
i think his death really made me view him in another light. i used to look down on him thinking he was a pedo making pedo-themed songs. but once his death came it made me realize all the people trying to get his money, all the stress he was under, and i think he's truly a legend if he can put up with all that and still come out with revolutionary dance moves, and a unique voice.
