This is it _ Blame it on the Boogie

I haven't written in a minute but, that doesn't mean there hasn't been LOT's of activity in the MJ camp. Activity leads to production which includes work! Michael Jackson has been succeeding in saving the economy for months since his passing.

The movie "This is It" is ready for theaters. Well, the only way that could have come about was if there were a TEAM of hired filmmakers (incl. editors, writers, directors, pre/post production crew, etc) to make it happen.

It's only Friday, tickets go on sale Sunday and people have already set up camp to wait in line. It's phenomenal. More security will be needed, more ticket sales, more concessions will be sold. There will be out pours of tributes, which lead to boosts in local economies. MJ is a hero.
