Deborah,
I think they may be going a little overboard on the coverage of Michael Jackson's death, However, he truly did change the way people did view nd hear music. The reaction to his death by those who came of gae in the 80's is how those who came of age in the 50's reacted to Elvis' death and those who came of age in the 60's and 70's reacted to Lennon's death

I finished Aunt Dimity Vampire Hunter. Now reading The Hot Flash Club by Nancy Thayer

I agree with Joanne. If I do not care about the charcters or story after 50 pages, I will stop reading the book. There are to many books out here to enjoy to spend time readubg simething you do not like,
