Crowds Pay Tribute at Shrine of Remembrance
From the close of the dawn service onwards through the morning a constant stream of people visited the shrine of Remembrance at Anzac Square to place their floral tributes at the foot of the eternal flame.
By nine o'clock the shrine was banked high with dahlias, chrysanthemums, poppies, gerberas, and roses and the morning sun drew out a perfume that pervaded the Square from Adelaide Street to Ann.
* * *
Here and there the mass of colour was broken by the dark green of a laurel wreath tied with battalion colours and a wreath of English ivy, hung from an iron picket, trailed colours of green and white.
* * *
The morning was full of incident. Grey-haired women, leaning heavily on sticks, came with their grandchildren, and ex-servicemen in ones and twos and threes stood for a moment, hats in hands, to pay a tribute to fallen comrades. "The years are creeping on us," said one of their number, glancing at the bare heads of his friend, and rubbed his hand ruefully through his own thinning locks.
* * *
"In memory of my husband." "In memory of my brother." "In memory of my son, killed in action in France, aged 21 years and 10 months" - poignant reminded in a cross of purple dahlias of the pathetic youth of so many of the fallen.
* * *
One's eyes wander to a group of boys balancing light-heartedly on the bannisters of the steps that lead down to the square, waiting for the bus that has been chartered to take them to a picnic. The echo of their careless voices drifts up to where one stands among the flowers and heavy perfume, and one prays earnestly for the best.
* * *
Shortly before 9.30, boys of the Merchant Navy Sea Training Corps marched up Adelaide Street, turned into Creek Street, thence to Ann Street, and lined up before the Shrine. Shepherded by a colour party each little boy laid his wreath at the foot of the Eternal Flame, stepped back two paces, saluted smartly, and rejoined his ranks. The boys had hardly gone on their way when their places were taken by members of the Angels' Remembrance Club of the 15th Battalion, who stood in silence while Brother S. J. Brown, Grand Primo of Queensland, laid a huge wreath of poppies and laurel leaves, and Brother Cyril White, Grand Chaplain of Queensland, delivered a short address followed by the sounding of "Last Post."

From The Telegraph, Tuesday 25 April 1939.
An article featuring my work from here on flickr in a special publication from Romantic Homes Magazine....
"I remember being in the parking lot of a movie theater, crammed into the back of Vinnie's (Avarali, guitarist) Volkswagen and listening to the basis of something amazing," remembers Frank Iero, who was so wowed by Leathermouth's all-instrumental early demos that he literally willed himself into the noisy new Jersey hardcore band after another vocalist's audition fell through. Never mind that Iero had another, slightly bigger group gaining momentum at the time: Between writing sessions for The Black Parade, the My Chemical Romance guitarist found time to practice, gig and demo new tunes with Leathermouth, who managed to keep their identity relatively guarded as their sound and lineup came together. "I originally wanted to keep Leathermouth anonymous," says Iero, "But playing live, it's hard to keep the secret unless you wear masks, and I wasn't into that--too hot. So I figured fuck it, let's not hide from something we life doing this much." The band's touring lineup includes guitarists Ed Auletta and Rob Hughes, bassist John McGuire, and MCR/Reggie and the Full Effect's own James Dewees on drums.. (Original members Avarali, Steve Oyola and Andrew Escobar have since formed a full-time band, March of Saints.)
Thanks to Iero's day job and a steady trickle of online buzz, Leathermouth have become one of punk rock's worst-kept secrets. Although you'd think the band's sound--rooted as it is in the black-hearted noise and nihilism of bands like Black Flag and Ink & Dagger--would've turned off more MCR fans than it's attracted. "Leathermouth is where I can vent about all the bullshit that makes me crazy," admits Iero, who adds that he's always been leery of promoting the band as an MCR offshoot. "Every emotion I'm not proud to feel, every situation that goes on in the day and age that we wish we could just bury. I like to sing words that make moms cover their babies' ears."
Leathermouth's first official album--a sweltering, lo-fi collection recorded over two years in a series of New York and New Jersey basements--has been in the can for months. Despite rumors of a (more than appropriate) Halloween '08 release on Iero's Skeleton Crew label, he says he's still looking for the perfect home. "It just made sense to sign my band to my label at first," he says, "but then I thought about it, and I realized I hate promoting myself." Regardless of how or when Leathermouth's music makes it into stores, Iero plans to hit the road hard during MCR's current hiatus, starting this fall opening for Reggie and the Full Effect. Any fans expecting Leathermouth's live-and-lewd noise to carry over into The Black Parade's sequel probably shouldn't get their hopes up.
"There's no thought of MCR at all when writing Leathermouth songs," Iero explains. "Sometimes it's fun to throw everything you've done in the past out the window and just scream your guts out about setting girls on fire."

Demel is one of the most famous Viennese pastry at the carbon (cabbage) market (Kohlmarkt) 14 in the first Viennese district Innere Stadt. Demel was a k.u.k. Hofzuckerbäcker and runs this item today in public.
History
1778 came the of Wurttemberg stemming confectioner Ludwig Dehne to Vienna. 1786, he founded his pastry shot at the place of St. Michael. Dehne died in 1799 of tuberculosis. His widow then married the confectioner Gottlieb Wohlfahrt. In 1813 they bought the house in St. Michael's Square 14. Despite numerous innovations such as frozen the company's finances could not be rehabilitated. After the death of Gottlieb Wohlfahrt in 1826 the widow and her son from her first marriage August Dehne succeeded but the economic boom. August Dehne managed to great wealth, he invested in land. As the son of August Dehne struck another career as a lawyer, Dehne sold the confectionery in 1857 to his first mate Christoph Demel.
Demel also had success in the continuation of the company and established it to a Viennese institution. After the death of Christoph Demel in 1867 his sons Joseph and Charles took over the business, which is why it since "Christoph Demel 's Söhne" means. On request Demel received 1874 the Hoflieferantentitel (the titel as purveyor to the court). The proximity to the Imperial Palace directly opposite made business more profitable. The Hofburg borrowed from Demel occasionally staff and tableware for special occasions such as proms and parties. Recent developments in the art of confectionery were brought from Paris. Trained at Demel, professionals quickly found employment.
1888 Old Burgtheater was demolished at Michael's place and transformed the place. Demel had to move out of the house and he moved to the Kohlmarkt 14. The new store inside was equipped inside with high costs by purveyor to the court Portois & Fix. The interior is decorated in the style of Neo-Rococo with mahogany wood and mirrors. Regulars were members of the Viennese court as Empress Elisabeth, and other prominent members of the Vienna society of the time, the actress Katharina Schratt and Princess Pauline von Metternich. A peculiarity of Demel from the time of the monarchy is that the always female attendance, which originally was recruited from monastic students, is dressed in a black costume with a white apron. They are called Demelinerinnen and address the guest traditionally in a special "Demel German", which is a polite form of the third person plural, omitting the personal salutation and with questions such as "elected Have you?" or "want to eat?" was known.
After the death of Joseph and Carl Demel took over Carl's widow Maria in 1891 the management. She also received the k.u.k. Hoflieferantentitel. From 1911 to 1917 led Carl Demel (junior) the business and then his sister Anna Demel (4 March 1872 in Vienna - November 8, 1956 ibid ; born Siding). Under her leadership, the boxes and packaging were developed by the Wiener Werkstätte. Josef Hoffmann established in 1932 because of a contract the connection of the artist Friedrich Ludwig Berzeviczy-Pallavicini to Anna Demel. The design of the shop windows at that time was an important means of expression of the shops and there were discussions to whether they should be called visual or storefront (Seh- or Schaufenster - display window or look window). While under the Sehfenster (shop window) an informative presentation of goods was understood, the goods should be enhanced by staging the showcase. From 1933 until his emigration in 1938 took over Berzeviczy-Pallavicini the window dressing of Demel and married in 1936 Klara Demel, the adopted niece of Anna Demel.
During the Nazi regime in Austria the confectioner Demel got privileges from the district leadership because of its reputation. Baldur von Schirach and his wife took the confectioner under their personal protection, there were special allocations of gastronomic specialties from abroad in order to continue to survive. But while the two sat in the guest room and consumed cakes, provided the Demelinerinnen in a hallway between the kitchen and toilet political persecutws, so-called U-Boats. Those here were also hearing illegal radio stations and they discussed the latest news.
1952 Anna Demel was the first woman after the war to be awarded the title Kommerzialrat. She died in 1956. Klara Demel took over the management of the bakery. Berzeviczy-Pallavicini, who lived in the United States until then returned to Vienna. After Clara's death on 19 April 1965, he carried on the pastry. During his time at Demel he established the tradition to make from showpieces of the sugar and chocolate craft extravagant neo-baroque productions. Baron Berzeviczy sold the business in 1972 for economic reasons to the concealed appearing Udo Proksch, who established in 1973 in the first floor rooms for the Club 45; also Defence Minister Karl Lütgendorf had his own salon. After Proksch was arrested in 1989 in connection with the Lucona scandal, he sold Demel to the non-industry German entrepreneur Günter Wichmann. 1993 it came to insolvency. Raiffeisen Bank Vienna as principal creditor, acquired the property in 1994 from the bankrupt company to initially continue itself the traditional Viennese company through a subsidiary. In the process of the renovation in March 1995 on the fourth floor were mura painting from the 18th century exposed and the baroque courtyard covered by a glass construction which since the re-opening on 18 April 1996 can be used as Schanigarten (pavement café) or conservatory.
In 2002 the catering company Do & Co took over the Demel. The company was awarded with the "Golden Coffee Bean " of Jacobs coffee in 1999. Demel now has additional locations in Salzburg and New York.

One of the most famous specialty of the house is " Demel's Sachertorte" . The world-famous Sachertorte was invented by Franz Sacher, but completed only in its today known form by his son Eduard Sacher while training in Demel. After a 1938 out of court enclosed process occurred after the Second World War a till 1965 during dispute between Demel and the Sacher Hotel: The hotel insisted on its naming rights, Demel, however, could pointing out already since the invention of the "Original Sacher" called pie "having used the denomination". Demel had after the death of Anna Sacher in 1930, under defined conditions, the generation and distribution rights for "Eduard-Sacher-Torte" received. The dispute was settled in favor of the Hotel Sacher and the Demelsche cake is today, "Demel 's Sachertorte" and is still made by hand. While a layer of apricot jam under the chocolate icing and another in the center of the cake can be found in the "Original Sacher-Torte", is in "Demel 's Sachertorte " the layer in the middle omitted.
Besides the Sachertorte helped another specialty the pastry to world fame: the original gingerbread figures whose modeling came from the collection of Count Johann Nepomuk Graf Wilczek on Castle Kreuzenstein. Then there are the Demel cake (almond-orange mass with blackcurrant jam, marzipan and chocolate coating), Anna Torte, Dobos cake, cake trays, Russian Punch Cake, Esterházy cake, apple strudel and other confectionary specialties. Popular with many tourists are the candied violets with which Demel earlier supplied the imperial court and they allegedly have been the Lieblingsnaschereien (favorite candies) of Empress Elisabeth ("Sisi"). Rooms in the upper floors as the Pictures Room, Gold Room and the Silver rooms are rented for events. In addition to the pastry shop Demel operates, as it did at the time of the monarchy, a catering service, after the re-opening in 1996 as well as storage, shipping and packaging was desettled in the 22nd District of Vienna. Demel is also responsible for the catering at Niki Aviation.

New Westminster Salmonbellies travelled to Montreal for a challenge match. They beat the Montreal Shamrocks for its first Minto Cup (then given to the top senior team in Canada).
1908 was a pivotal year in the history of the Minto Cup when the New Westminster Salmonbellies defeated the Montréal Shamrocks 12 to 7 in their two-game, total-goals series. The first game of the series was a close 6-5 result before the Salmonbellies responded with a commanding 6-2 win in the rematch to clinch the silverware.

With the benefit of hindsight, the 1908 New Westminster-Montréal series signaled a changing of the guard and is probably the most historically significant event in the cup’s history until the juniors took over control of the mug. It saw the game’s first dynasty coming to an end with a brand-new one at the opposite end of the country ready to take its place. The victory for the Royal City was notable for two other important reasons: the New Westminster Salmonbellies were the last bonafide amateur team to challenge and win the professional trophy as well as the first club from the Pacific Coast to pry the silver mug from the hands of the Easterners.

- the photographer - Frederick Louis Hacking
(b. 2 July 1880 in Ontario, Canada - d. 20 February 1969 at age 88 in Monterey, California, USA)
He started as a photo printer with the Wadds Brothers, then purchased S.J. Thompson's former New Westminster studio and by 1908 was running his own Vancouver studio at 445 Granville St. in the Fairfield Block. His landscape photographs attacted notice at the 1899 New Westminster exhibition.
The Daily News-Advertiser described his Vancouver studio when it opened in the Fairfield Block (Building) in 1908. Hacking, who was the official representative from BC at the Photographers' Association of the Pacific Northwest 1910 conference in Vancouver, was also elected vice-president for BC that year.
He later immigrated to California and registered for the US World War Two draft in 1942.
VANCOUVER STUDIO (FAIRFIELD BUILDING) DESCRIPTION:
This description of F.L. Hacking's new photo studio was published by the (Vancouver) Daily News-Advertiser on 14 Aug 1908, p. 15. The article was illustrated with three photographs depicting the "Reception Room", the "Skylight Room" and "Another View of Reception Room."
"An Artistic Studio.
A member of the "News-Advertiser" staff visited the new photographic studio of Mr. F.L. Hacking in the Fairfield Building, Granville Street, where for weeks past contractors and decorators have been transforming several suites of rooms and offices into what is now recognized as the most complete and artistic studio in the Province.
On entering the reception room, one is immediately impressed by the beautiful and quaint appearance of the apartment, which is furnished in the early English style. Amongst the many special features one's attention is drawn to the beautiful panelled walls, enriched with copper nailing, the unique fire grate and the casement windows and doors, whilst four heavy clusters of drop lights, suspended from the beamed ceilings--all designed and made especially for this studio--give the room a pleasing and uncommon appearance.
The delightful color scheme, from the rich rug on the floor to the delicate harmony of walls and ceilings, tends to show to advantage the specimens of artistic portraiture displayed, and gives visitors that feeling of repose and satisfaction that assures them that their own work could not be entrusted to better hands.
Leading from the reception room through a massive archway are the dressing rooms, each fitted with long pier mirrors and furnished in the same good taste.
The skylight room, one of the most important features of Mr. Hacking's business, has been constructed to give lighting facilities which will enable photographs to be taken at all reasonable times and under all conditions. The room is large and not encumbered with a hetreogeneous [sic] mass of painfully artificial scenery and paraphernalia; instead you see instruments and accessories of the best lenses by Dallmeyer, of London, England, and Goerz, of Berlin; camera by Anthony, of New York, and the necessary backgrounds are a revelation of simplicity and rich value, all painted especially by Packard, of Boston.
Nearly every modern equipment known to photography may be found in this up-to-date studio. The developing and finishing rooms are complete in every detail, giving this studio advantages for promptly executing work, a desideratum of no small importance, and one that will be immediately appreciated.
As a capable photographer, Mr. Hacking needs but little introduction in Vancouver. He was apprenticed when a young man in a leading Eastern studio, where high ideals and careful workmanship were early acquired. Eleven years ago he came to Vancouver and after eight years connected with Wadds Brothers' studio purchased the studio in New Westminster formerly conducted by Mr. S.J. Thompson. His artistic work brought immediate success that has necessitated branching out into the broader fields of opportunity offered in Vancouver.
Not being satisfied with anything but the best location and equipment, he finally secured the present quarters in the Fairfield building, the heart of the best district, which our readers are heartily commended to visit and inspect.
Mr. Hacking aptly says that "the aim and purpose of this studio is to turn out only high grade photographs, and the best that experience, artistic training, perfect equipment and skilled workmanship can produce is offered to its patrons."

Well there you are!!! I think now I have earned the right to call myself an artist. At age 39, year 2006, I enrolled into an Art & Design course at Banff & Buchan College. I didn’t know how to draw, and no one asked if I could, I laugh now, but at time I was so anxious about being caught out and being asked to leave course. Check list for my 1st materials pack was harder than written exam the following year :-) I remember saying "what is pastels, what is a tortillon, putty rubber most of pack what is that? Anyway in that 1st year I did learn and worked hard, to end up winning over all best exhibit award, 2nd year achieved a 'B' Higher and won most improved student award, 3rd and last year achieved 'A' Higher National Certificate, won Best student award and SQA award at graduation ceremony. The icing on the cake was to be recognized in newspaper for my hard work and achievements.
The following article was released on July 10th, 1972 by the Radio Free Europe. Here it is:
A luxurious new resort, advertised as "a complete island paradise in Europe," was recently opened on the Yugoslav Adriatic island of Krk. Bob Guccione, editor and publisher of Penthouse, an American "international magazine for men" invested 45 million dollars in the project. The resort, which will be owned and operated by Yugoslavs, is seen by Guccione as an antidote to cold war misunderstanding. It is expected that hundreds of well-to-do Americans visit Krk and the "Penthouse Adriatic," and divest themselves of a little hard currency in the process.
"We have detected a real formula in the struggle against the cold war" revealed Bob Guccione, editor and publisher of Penthouse - "The International Magazine for Men." The ingredients were described in an interview with Nedeljne informativne novine (NIN), the Belgrade weekly. A reasonable amount of Western capital, in this case 45 million dollars provided by Guiccione's publication, is combined with socialist financing and skills, in this case supplied by the Rijeka "Brodokomerc," and "the most exciting and exotic resort experience of all time" is constructed for Westerners vacationing in the East. On June 15 of this year the "grand opening" of just such a mutual enterprise, The Penthouse Adriatic, was celebrated on Krk, the largest island in the Adriatic Sea (410 square km.). The establishment was described in the June 1972 issue of Penthouse: "Richly located on the idyllic island of Krk, a few miles south of Trieste and directly opposite Venice, this mile-long Xanadu of glittering buildings will become for international cognoscenti a premier playground for summer and winter seasons alike."
The complex was designed by a Yugoslav "grand prix (twice awarded) architect" whose name has not been given. The architectural center of the resort, whose Yugoslav name is "Haludovo," is the Penthouse Palace, "a gracefully colonnaded construction within whose elegant interior is the Great Lounge, bedecked with hanging gardens, pools and fountains." The Anglo-American Penthouse Casino (for foreigners only) can compare "with the finest casinos in Las Vegas and other principal gambling centers."
On July 3 the first group of American guests landed at the Krk airport, only 12 minutes away from the Penthouse Adriatic. Sixteen such groups are now expected, but the possibilities of and interest in this large Yugoslav-American project far outrun its tourist count to date. Guccione would like to create a world center for various congresses, conventions and international meetings in Krk, The huge Ford Company has announced plans to use the Penthouse Adriatic for its conventions. A meeting of commercial air lines is soon to take place in Krk and will be highlighted by the election of a "most beautiful stewardess." In the July issue of Penthouse, Krk is called "a complete island paradise in Europe's most up-and-coming resort location".

I bought my machine from this vendor:
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OZJ8P2C
Even though this machine doesn’t qualify for Prime 2-day shipping, I ordered it on Sunday, 7/15/18 and received it on Friday, 7/20/18. Not bad even though it appears the vendor made a mistake slapping two UPS shipping labels on it. As a result, the machine first went to Simi Valley, CA before reaching me in Northern CA. It was never delivered to the other customer in Simi Valley, but I can see the box had been opened and retaped. In spite of all that, the machine works great and looks brand new. So I don't mind even if it's "open-box".
This machine is well built and the vendor provides excellent post-sale services. I mistakenly thought the remote control was missing, contacted the vendor and he immediately shipped me a new one with no questions asked. I later found out that a remote control was in fact inside the box, it's just kind of hidden and I didn't see it.
I get on it twice a day for 10 minutes each and I feel great. Our internist recommended us to get a whole body vibration machine. He has a Hypervibe G-17 and I tried a Zaaz 20K at Costco. After standing on the Zaaz for 12 minutes, all my aches and pain were gone. Both of those machines are much, much more expensive and much heavier.
Some people complained about the user manual. To me, it’s totally satisfactory. The instruction is easy to understand and fully explains how to operate the machine. However, it doesn’t provide any technical specs such as G-force or vibrations frequency range. For the price though, I don’t expect that kind of details even though it would be nice to have. The vendor web site on Amazon does say the amplitude is between 1 and 15 mm.
There are vendors that sell similar looking machines for less. But they are smaller in size. This machine is 30.3" wide. Theirs are 26.8". Since we get better results by positioning our legs farther apart, I don’t mind paying a little more. The smaller and cheaper machines has 99 speeds vs this one with 20 speeds. However, I like 20 speeds more than 99 as it is much easier to press 12 times to get to Speed 12 than 60 times to get Speed 60. I generally use the preset Program 3, which goes from Speed 4 to 12 to 18, then coming back down to 12. The machine defaults to 10 minutes and won’t go beyond 10 minutes, which is fine with me. I don’t have any problem standing on it and watching TV at the same time.
Don’t know if it makes any difference. The description on the box for this machine says it’s a “vibration plate” while the smaller and cheaper one says it’s a “massager”. I helped a friend buy the less expensive machine. That’s why I can compare them.
I wouldn’t trust the pictures from the vendor on weight loss. I do think the machine will help on muscles toning , blood circulation, balancing, reducing back pain and perhaps bone loss. I also believe the Zaaz is better than this machine but not 15 times better.
Oscillating Vibration Machines have a fulcrum point at the center of the plate. The base plate rocks on this central fulcrum point, producing a similar effect to a see-saw, with one side of the plate rising slightly as the other side dips. The difference between the high and low points is known as the amplitude or displacement value, and on most machines the measurement is somewhere between 1 and 10 millimeters.
The see-saw motion is designed to imitate the movements your body makes every day when walking, with your body weight alternating from one side to the other. This constant shift in position causes your body to react and compensate, with muscles quickly contracting and then relaxing to stabilize your body's position.

News article obtained from the Chicago Tribune:
Johnsburg, Illinois: A boating trip turned deadly Sunday afternoon for a Melrose Park man taking in Pistakee Lake in northwest suburban Johnsburg, officials said.
Preliminary autopsy results indicate the victim, 49-year-old William L. Trybula, died of drowning, according to a statement from the McHenry County coroner. Toxicology tests are pending, according to the statement.
McHenry Township Fire Protection District Battalion Chief Mike Majercik earlier said the victim was from Stone Park. He was pronounced dead at 5:05 p.m. at Centegra Northern Illinois Medical Center in McHenry, Majercik said.
According to an earlier statement from the coroner, the victim was found submerged in Pistakee Bay.
The victim was aboard a 23-foot Baja power boat with two other men and the friends stopped about 3:45 p.m. to take a swim. Two of them jumped into the water and the third stayed on the boat but turned off the engine. They were about 300 feet out in front of a home in the 4000 block of Pitzen Road in the village of Johnsburg, said Majercik.
One man swam back to bring his wallet to the boat but by that time, his friend was nowhere to be seen.
"They looked for the person in the water and could not find him,"’ Majercik said. "It was very windy."
Someone from the nearby home called 911 and about 10 different departments rushed to the scene with about 20 divers. One of the first responders, from a fire boat from Fox Lake, spotted a body floating in about 4 feet of water and rushed to him. But as they were hoisting him up about 4:30 p.m., their boat took on water and capsized, Majercik said.
Another boat got there quickly and the victim was place into an ambulance and taken to the hospital.
Majercik said the other two friends, one possibly from Chicago and the other from Schiller Park, were not injured. None of them were wearing life jackets.
Mark Adams, of Paradise Financial Partners nearby at 520 Bald Knob Rd., saw rescue workers on boats pull the man's body from the water.
"They took the body away in an ambulance," Adams said. The rescue boat flipped during the recovery, he said.
Adams said multiple towns responded with divers but crews were picking up and leaving about 5:15 p.m.
Lt. James Popovits of the McHenry County Sheriff's Office said Monday morning his agency will conduct an investigation of the incident.
Article on the street gang "The L.A.D.S. - who protected the old punk scene and kept out alot of undesirables and pranksters who were just there to cause it all to fall apart.Cheers!
How could you go?
Why did you have to go?
My dear dear MJ
When I was a kid, I grew up watching you dance and sing. I was so crazy about you. So was my family, I remember we'd sit and watch your shows on this show that was called the golden Disco or something. The thing is we watched you as a family, my parents who weren't crazy of western music would watch you. That's how much we loved you.
I was the kid who didn't understand the words of Billie Jean but you walking through that street lighting up each stone still bewitches me. Your videos were revolutionary, your music amazing and your dance just out of this world. Your music shaped my life.
I loved every single song of yours, I can't pinpoint just one song that was my most favourite. YOu were the only King of Pop for me. I'd get so angry if anyone criticised you. So much so if anyone said anything I'd just walk away or tell them to stop saying anything about you.
You had to pick 1996 to come to Malaysia! I was so devastated. There was no way my parents would let me go not when we were having our trials at the same time! My whole class had always been fans, yes thank god for that.
We were super crazy about you just as many teens from our era. People who loved you with all our heart, people who were blessed to have grown up watching you.
Yet 2 of my classmates did go and I don't think anyone of us concentrated on our trials. All we could do was relive their moments at the concert. They told us every little thing, in between our papers. We'd finish one paper start talking about you and then sit for the next.
Those 2 still rub it in. the fact that they got to watch you.
That was my lifes biggest regret not watching you in concert. I've always hoped you'd come again, I've always hoped I'd see you perform somehow, I've always wished I could meet you one day.
How am I supposed to see you now?
I'm crying writing this, my moms laughing at me. You didn't even cry at your fathers funeral?
The world has lost an amazing man, musician, the man with no bones who went through so much. I'm losing the icon of my life. He deserves every single tear. You went to soon Michael. 2 months short of your 51st birthday!
God bless you Michael. I will always love you.
29th August 1958 - 25th June 2009
Your crazy fan who is still in shock

PRESIDIO OF MONTEREY, Calif. -- About 20 volunteers from the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center converged in the Santa Cruz area to join other community volunteers and a slew of professional surfers April 21-26 to help wounded service members and veterans overcome the perceived limitations of their physical and psychological disabilities through adaptive surfing during the 6th Annual Operation Surf Santa Cruz. Thirty-two wounded military members from across the United States and U.K. participated, most recovering from combat-related injuries suffered while fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan that included amputees and those with traumatic brain injuries.
