    That Michael Jackson story was posted on June 26 this year, and said at the beginning that the events had happened the night before, but Michael Jackson died on June 25. Either it really happened some other time, I’m missing something, or it never happened.

    It is a very nice story if it’s true, though.

    Teri: Yeah, I am not sure. It was another guy’s story that he had posted on there but the details all sound too specific to be made up.

    Clare Doogan: Thanks so much for the mention. Great work!
