Inappropriate, But Still Funny

By now, you are probably sick of reading stories about Michael Jackson.

Apart from his death eclipsing another little story about what's going on in Iran, and the general wackiness displayed by his fans that prompted Jesse Jackson to come out and urge them not to kill themselves; someone told me by far the best story over the weekend.

I play softball with a guy who is a supervisor for the T bus drivers (for those of you who don't know, the T is the public transportation system for the Greater Boston area).

He told me after his shift on Friday (the day after Micheal died), he noticed several of the African American bus drivers were kind of upset.

He asked them what was bothering them. The answer he got was - throughout the day, white people were coming on the bus and telling them that they were sorry about Michael.

By the way, you can still buy the shirt for $6.
