I, for one, have always believed the testament “Guilty until Proven Innocent”.

Oh, wait. No.

Innocent until proven guilty.

Ya. That’s right.

And The Gloved One was no exception.

So for me to say something like: “Michael, what big hands you have!”

Would be horrible to follow-up with something like: “All the better to touch you with my young friend.”

Because that’s just not politically correct or fair since he’s not using that glove to touch anyone but himself from now on passed away.

I kid. I kid. (Kinda.)

I am a fan of the Self Proclaimed King of Pop. Always have been.

In fact, I remember asking for a similar red leather jacket to the one he adorned in the Thiller video.

Though, this wasn’t want I had in mind.

(Can I just tell you that I LOVE the fact that the crafter has coined this one “The Beat It Jacket”.)

And, growing up, I had a friend who owned a Michael Jackson action figure. I was insanely jealous. I wanted that doll; now finally, I can have one of my own.

Again, not exactly how I had envisioned it, but I’ll take it.

Rest peacefully Michael.

And now I can too knowing the little boys of the world are just a little bit safer.
