tenuous links on local news reports

[EugeneHCrabs]

i bet you sally taylor will manage to link MJs death to the Olympic yachting venue or the NEw forest - oh ooh Uri Geller in look southwest?

My fave was when our local regional news programme interviewed an elderly couple who had been to London to sign the book for Diana.

"Here are Frank and Mabel who have been to London!"

LOl
or who once met her.

what will your local news link to Jacko?

They'll probably interview some saddo fan who has spent their entire life savings on non-refundable tickets to see him every night of the tour

hehehe

A guy who owns a local nightclub claimed to have been 'involved' with him in the 70s so they might seek him out.

(and that fan will be from Herefordshire of course Eugene )

lol oh yes
they do use the internet there a lot - being no shops

No the internet is down across the county -seems to be some problem with the power source, which has ground to a halt

I'm OK though as we live just across the border

On our local news (Central) someone sent in a watermelon they had carved in tribute to Jacko - don't ask!

lol -makes a change from the image of Christ or Mother Theresa on a piece of burnt toast I suppose

Ours was an interview with the bloke from JLS who once pretended to be Michael Jackson on 'Stars In Their Eyes'.
