It Can't Be Real If It Doesn't Happen:

The news, with their reports of Michael's impending funeral/memorial/whatever, is a double-edged sword.

On one hand, I want to attend anything that will be public at Neverland Ranch. It's like 40 minutes south of me and an opportunity to be with other like-minded fans (and yes, some of the nutjobs, but the same could be said for a KISS concert too). On the other hand, the press keeps giving out wrong information in their hurry to be "first" and "breaking" that it's becoming a joke.

The family is being rather hush-hush on funeral arrangements at this point. Staples Center? Gary, Indiana? Neverland Ranch?

Maybe if there isn't any funeral/memorial/whatever, I can pretend this whole thing never happened. Watching the released footage of his last run-through days before he died, I can easily believe Michael is alive & well and doing just fine. No one with that much talent and ability at 50 can be but a mere 24 to 48 hours away from sudden death.

Right?
