I know he was on the Johnny Carson show, but I remember him most for Star Search. I loved that show as a kid! And the first winner - Sam Harris! Boy did I have a crush on him. :) I think he also worked with Dick Clark on that show Bloopers and Practical Jokes. Recently he was having negative press regarding his house. He recently had a round of pneumonia and I think he was diagnosed with bone cancer as well. R.I.P. ED!! Yesterday morning we lost Farrah Fawcett.
She was a fighter, that is for sure. I have to admit that I do not remember being a huge Farrah fan when I was a kid. But I do know that I learned to respect her abilities over the years. She was a very talented actress who never seemed to quite get away from being "An Angel". She'd been fighting anal cancer since 2006. I think what saddens me is that Ryan O'Neal finally proposed but she died before they could marry. R.I.P FARRAH! 
The shocker was the death of Michael Jackson yesterday. Sudden cardiac arrest. Thriller was the first record (and yes, it was vinyl!) that I ever bought with my own money. I listened to that thing over and over again. I was in love with Michael Jackson! I mean, what little girl could not adore this guy snuggling with a "kitty"? 
Everyone I knew wanted to be that girl in his Thriller video. Wowsers! 
I do have something to say to the media out there regarding Michael - YOU all SUCK! I hear you praising him right now, but where were your praises back when he was getting accused of molestation? Sure - he was different. But he was ACQUITTED people! Michael - I hope you have finally found peace. R.I.P.

No comment on MJ because it seems that you and I have polar opposite views on that one.
More importantly, though: do you remember in, I don't know, somewhere between 5th and 7th grade, when Jeremy and I went through our Ed McMahon phase? Where 75% of the time when someone asked us a question, we would answer Ed McMahon? (I believe the other 25% of the time the answer was 'mmm, chocolately.'
Well - personally, MJ was not one of my favorites. But I loved his music. And you have to admit that the guy had talent.
I do remember that now! Hehe - I had forgotten all about that. And when was the Hitchhiker's Guide phase? 42!
