Michael Jackson likes my shoes

[morinen]

I found a very funny story that I've never read before:

Michael Jackson likes my shoesIn May of 1987 I found myself in Los Angeles. I had been sent, primarily, on one of those faintly ridiculous writing trips that publishers are so fond of. You get a sniff of success by accidentally writing a song on a big selling album, and they just whip you off

LOL! An interesting story, too. Thanks for sharing!

He just seemed relaxed and at home with them and uncomfortable with anyone over the age of 25.

I think I haven't seen this so well put before. It makes it almost palpable, this feeling he might have had about children vs. adults.

Here it comes

‘‘ Not only that Michael, but they’re really cheap.’’

Show of hands, how many of you thought "Salvation Army tomorrow, Bill!" when you read that part? hehehe

"Great bargains!" Haha, you could totoally win him with "cheap".
