“That was a quick three”

Michael Jackson is dead.

Me, calling The Inconvenience: “Michael Jackson is dead.”
TI: “Huh. That was a quick three.”
Me: “Whut?”
TI: “They always die in threes. Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson.”
Me: “Farrah Fawcett is dead!?!?!”
TI: “Yup. All other celebrities: You may now breathe a sigh of relief. You’re safe for now.”

snort..if they do die in threes..we’re missing one at the moment. Here’s the list…
1. David Caradine/about 2wks ago now
2 Ed McMahon..last monday?
3. Farrah Fawcett..thursday in the wee a.m. hrs
4. Michael Jackson..again on thursday
5. Billy Mays..yesterday
6……..I’m still waiting……….. hurry up and die already Hollyweird hacks. You are screwing up my count.

P.S. yep I’m an evil S.O.B., and the only reason I count Billy is because he was so well known through infomercials.

Karl Malden just died, so I guess that could round out the second set of 3.
