Michael Jackson died 2 weeks before his stage-comeback!

I never expected that this headline would shake the world that much. It’s seems like a lifetime ago that Michael Jackson was the “King of Pop”, the master of all glamour and high-quality pop music. He gave the whole show business a complete new definition…

Today Michael Jackson passed away and i’m writing these lines in unbelieving mood. Can it be true?

I think he was a lost soul, a fallen angel who never got the chance to come back, to reach his old form. To be honest, i never believed that he would be able to enter the stage in July. Since ages he was sick, a broken person who had lost all his money and couldn’t find a way out of his crazy and strange world. Maybe he even had lost his ingenuity, we will never know.

Michael, i never understood all the surgeries that only made you look like an alien, i never understood all that Neverland Kitsch and Peter Pan nonsense. You were only human.

But for me you will always be the “King of Pop” and i thank you for “Thriller”, “Dirty Diana”, “Billy Jean” and “Beat it” with Eddie Van Halen’s brilliant guitar solo. Just to name a few.

Well, i’m sure you’re going to show the angels in heaven how to do a damn fine moonwalk! Not “bad” man…

Farewell, Michael Jackson, may God bless you.

Some of you might know that Google´s 3D-Virtual-Chat-World-Experiment Lively.com ended on December 31.

The MXM-Lively-Room from outside

I always felt so-lala about Lively. It was not bad but it also was far away from being really cool. I will never understand why multi-billion Dollar companies release such unfinished projects that are neither fish nor flesh, neither water nor wine.

At least Lively was free for everybody and simple to use – but a strong and lively community didn’t grow up anyway.

I don’t want to talk about the reasons for Lively`s failure, i only want to show you some pictures i took from the MXM-Room shortly before it was closed forever…

Bettie Page Pin-up Icon

I’m sure you have seen this face before. The person on this photo has a special style, a taste that one can’t forget. It’s the strong charisma and defiant look of this model that let her appear on more magazine covers than Marilyn Monroe and Cindy Crawford together.

Although Bettie Page retired from modeling in 1957 to live a religious life she never became to be forgotten. Quite the contrary: Bettie Page is still a world-wide known Pin-Up-Icon, the face of erotic photography, respected and worshiped by everybody who has a sense for beauty…
