2009 was a Pretty year...




...for Micheal Jackson's estate! Or rather Jackson's creditors. Maybe both? Before his death Jackson was in rehearsals for a world wide tour that would probably only have drawn die hard fans, baby boomers nostalgic for Mike's old nose and certain parties from major European cities that don't consider sex with minors any big deal. "This Is It" would either be a comeback or the final coffin nail in his career. But the former star's death on June 25th made headlines for months. What killed him? Who killed him? How did he come into possession of some white couple's children? The rehearsal footage was neatly packaged as a hit documentary film and a formerly failed greatest hit collection charted. Millions of (squabbled over) dollars rolled in and the Jackson brothers got a reality TV show and specifically Jermain Jackson got pink eye.
