Weirdness Abounds.

So I'm home from class today because my private road flooded. Frankly: Even though I do enjoy school, and do like actually attending classes, I'm not going to attempt to drive any vehicle over a flooded road, especially when you consider the fact that this section of our road is flooded because there's a creek underneath it. I can think of better, less painful ways to die than drowning, thank you very much. Or, you know, being impaled on one of the numerous sharp, pointy sticks and other debris scattered all over the creek.

In other weirdness: Rodney King recently beat the snot out of a cop...and totally got away with it, because they were doing "Celebrity Boxing."

The king! The king! He's alive!

Far be it from me to make fun of people for thinking outside of society's usual, accepted boundaries. Creative thinking, after all, is how mankind conceived such kick-ass things as:

The U.S. Constitution
Barbed wire
Semi-automatic handguns
Claymores
The Browning Automatic Rifle

So forth, so on, et cetera, you get the idea...

But there are times when the creative thinking just doesn't work for me.

Tonight, I present Michael Jackson Death Hoax*, a Web site devoted to the idea that the King of Pop's untimely, drug-induced death is, in fact, a publicity stunt and, therefore, not real.

Although some of the points that the writer(s) bring up on this site make you go, "Hmm," I'm not buying it. I'll believe that I really DID see Elvis at that Valero station in Tyler, Texas a few weeks ago before I'll believe that MJ is lurking somewhere on this planet.

* Also known as Michael Jackson Hoax Death because, apparently, the site's creator can't decide which word order he/she prefers.
