2. I'm continually amazed at how MUCH this guy did for charity.
W.O.W. I keep finding stuff like this and I'm continually floored - partially because - WHY didn't all these people HONOR him while he was alive when he could have used all that positive support? He really needed it.

Oh well. Better late than never, I guess. His humanitarian resume is ASTOUNDING.

3. When He Met Christ
I know a lot of people here aren't big on religion, but I believe that when he faced Jesus he fell on his knees, cried, and then Jesus gave him the one hug that wasn't filled with preconditions. I believe he went to Heaven. He was a real innocent and did way too much. He did a lot of this stuff anonymously and I wish the world had been better to him. But, the world usually treats people like Michael like garbage because people like Michael don't take advantage of people.

I remember reading that millions of women would have gladly slept with him, but he didn't go after all of them, pretty much leaving them alone. He married a couple of times, but didn't sleep around.
