Michael Jackson picks the name Mikaeel after rejecting Mustafa....

... as he converts to Islam at some mansion in L.A.

Cat Stevens was there. Maybe he sang this song.

I liked Into White.

People who are not nuts generally go into some field other than pop music, is the reason for the oddness there.

Self-selection.

I was reminded of the violin bridge's effect by the Dixie Chicks' Cowboy Take Me Away; which melodywise resembles Into White's not at all, but in its effect is identical.

Michael Jackson converting to Islam: I don't see how it could hurt, either Jackson or Islam.

I'm with dbp.

I didn't know that Jackson had been a Jehovah's Witness. Thirty years ago, I found a dollar bill on the street. I hold the superstition that money found should be quickly disposed of. As it happens, a Jehovah's Witness boarded the bus I was riding and couldn't find the fare, so I paid it. He gave me a hardcover book explaining his faith. I read it, then used it as a platform for hash under glass.

Hash under a glass, I have not thought of that in years. Frozen mugs were nice too.

It makes sense that a suspected pedophile would join a religion founded by a known pedophile...

Now Mikaeel can have his boys and eat them too.

Jacko's probably already scheduled plastic surgery to give him a muslim rug bump.
