When I see Michael Jackson, I see someone who seems like they are transgendered. Of course, only a person can say if they are or are not: themselves. We may never know. A person, who is one of the most popular people on the planet, would have a lot of pressure not to do something like transition, although Jackson seemed to do a lot of things that people didn't understand. Not all transgendered people transition, or even want to live as the opposite sex. Many just have different ways of expressing their gender. I don't really understand Michael, but from a distance it seemed like Jackson's journey was to express what was on the inside, and that just happened to be kind of feminine. So, there's your "freak" who, because of incredible fame, was attacked from all sides for being different and went into hiding. In all probability, the King of Pop was one of the nicest people you could meet, but will be remembered most for how they changed... I guess beauty really is skin deep, huh? Jackson had a skin condition (vitiligo) that causes a person to lose melanin, the pigment in skin. Even people who learn about this still think it was something intentional. Michael Jackson's performances were legendary. I hope we all can make the world a better place through our actions. "Make a better place for you and for me!"

Now that I have the Sims 3, I was thinking about adding friends into the game. This would be easy to do if my friends also have the game, and I could find their creations when we link up at the community website. Unfortunately, I think not many people have the game, or will see this entry. I may have to do some inquiries, or just create them myself. I may get in touch with you to help me create you as a Sim! I am also going to get the Spore expansion soon, so in anticipation of playing more Spore, I'd like to expand my subscriptions there, too. Since Spore has been around longer, and has more stuff to create, I would put a higher priority toward finding friends there. Please, share any helpful information with me.

My refurbished 80GB iPod lasted about 2 years, but I think it's finally had a fatal error. Not long after I got it, my iPod froze up, at a time when everything was falling apart. That was solved by plugging some different cables in the bottom at the "Genius" bar at the Apple Store. I didn't have time to wait over an hour to see someone Thursday, but I did talk to some people, and tried some connectors at the store. The problem is that my headphone jack is silent, and it also won't play sounds through the bottom port, using docking devices. The only way to play music is to sync it to a computer, which means it's just a glorified USB hard drive. I copied my items off the iPod (which required a freeware program called iDump, because iTunes doesn't allow it) and then reset the iPod, but when I reloaded my music, it still has the same problem. I may return to get an actual appointment at the Apple store, but since there's no warranty, I may be told that they can't fix it (they don't repair hardware) and will replace it with a similar model iPod, for something around one hundred fifty dollars. This is probably a better deal then I could get if I got a new music player, but I am very worried that it will fail, again. It is the only Apple product I own, and I am not that pleased with it, even when it works. Tags: computers, music, sad Mood: frustrated
