And then for something completely different - If you live in the LA area you can view the items for the Michael Jackson auction, (starts April 22) although I understand he is fighting the sale in court. You could buy a framed letter on White House stationery from Ronald Reagan noting Jackson's "adherence to traditional values ... an inspiration to all of us." No surprise that there’s a lot of odd stuff (to the left a Thai military uniform’s ermine cape.)

Notice on the MJ auction...that the auction co is 'pleased to announce' that the auction is a NO GO and The 'Prince of Pop' gets to keep it all.
 
Huh - so Michael keeps his loot. I remember watching a documentary that included him shopping - the money he spent on cr*p was disgusting.

Mary - I can't remember where I got that avatar :embaressed: but it's not my brother's art. I just thought the owl was a little too "in your face," although I do love owls.
