          So tax payers aren't footing the bill other then maybe the extra police support?

              Get ready to have your mind blown. Ready? Here we go ...

              -- Michael Jackson signed his will on 7/7/02.
              -- Michael Jackson's memorial was on 7/7/09 ... exactly 7 years after the will was signed.
              -- Michael Jackson's two biggest hits -- "Black & White" and "Billie Jean" -- were each #1 for 7 weeks.
              -- Michael Jackson's three biggest albums -- "Thriller," "Bad" and "Dangerous" -- each produced 7 top 40 hits.
              -- Michael Jackson was the 7th of 9 children.
              -- Michael Jackson was born in 1958 ... 19 + 58 = 77
              -- Michael Jackson died on the 25th ... 2 + 5 = 7
              -- Michael Jackson has 7 letters in his first and last name

                Correct, though its not a maybe. It remains to be seen exactly how much real dollars the added support cost the city and what kind of donations were received to cover the expense.

                  I wouldn't mind my tax dollars being spent on riot control. Do you really think ANY city would not bring in extra police presence with hundreds of thousands of people converging on their city?

But then again I can sorta understand since it's technically a "Celebration of his Life" they are having. I just wouldn't go as far as to call it a "Clown Convention" or "Musical Act".
                            I don't know about yall, but every funeral I've ever been to has had singing. Its not like they were performing Beat It or Wanna Be Startin Somethin.

                            Anyways this is hopefully the last we'll hear of Michael Jackson for some time.
                            Michael Jackson isn't just any ordinary celebrity. There were billions of people watching this memorial and it will probably go down as the most watched television event in history.

                            Its not everyday that the most famous person and most successful artist of ALL TIME passes away.

                              I was at work, so I didn't watch it. I did just see the clip of Jackson's daughter which was heart wrenching. Kids in tears always get to me (and I mean real tears, not scraped knee or "Mom won't buy me the toys I want" tears). Hopefully the Jackson family takes good care of those kids.
