Part of me was working on making some comments about M.J.’s sudden death – but a larger and, I think, better part of me thought “why?”  An icon of “pop” culture has died. I’m struck by the term “Pop culture” – as in bubbles popping, as in a vacuous culture, as in “here-today-gone-tomorrow” culture.

I’m sure there are other more interesting blog comments out there about this event – but you won’t find them here. If there is any content here at all, then this is a Michael Jackson free zone.

The grass withers, the flowers fade, but the Word of our Lord endures forever.
