James Poulos explores the "freak-industrial complex" in the wake of Michael Jackson's 24 carat send-off in a typically brilliant bit--written, presumably in the spare moments away from tending his anything-but-freakish brand new baby boy!

That article is so great! Thanks for sharing it into us. I’ve learned something new. But aside from that breaking report let me share something new concern to you, nowadays. Sky Capital Holdings, an investment group has gone and gotten themselves in trouble when Wall Street is being held up to more scrutiny than ever before. Sky Capital was slapped with an SEC indictment in Federal Court for running a stock fraud operation. The kind of fraud they allegedly perpetrated is called boiler fraud, in which false information is given and pressure put on investors to sell high volume of stock that is virtually worthless. Remember, if an investment sounds too good to be true, it probably is, and don't give in to sales pressure, otherwise you could end up being a victim of a company like Sky Capital and going to paycheck loans for extra cash.

Thinking about MJ's wretched descent to death got me to thinking how some of the other aging freaks like Boy Georgeare doing.
