Bonza, yep that makes more sense.. I had a moratorium on news yesterday.. lots of tennis coverage, naps and went to IHOP, so my friend who is normally way less up on things actually told me about the surgical drugs being found at Michael's house leak.

But it makes sense that they don't want to deal with giant crowds.. not with the lack of money for that sort of security force around Staples.

I would happily sign up and if I won, pass tickets along to Pamy but I just remember when I went to Big Brother I had to provide email address and exact names of each person. In fact on short notice I put myself, Lanzee, Pamy and a co-worker of hers and they were not able to go and that was that for those two tickets. Lanzee and I did go and definitely had to be "on the list". But they aren't stating what the procedure will be.. just asking name and address and birth date, all could be proven by showing photo id so that the physical person matched. And I've had to print out emails going to certain places and those were required to get in. So, who knows?

Big Brother was a bit easier (MUCH smaller number) and IF you could get the time to exchage emails, then you could get them to transfer a ticket identity (that was another year.. but I don't see that with this volumn of tickets.)

Hmm, Pamy, interestng about the code and of course in your case you plan to be one of the two, so it should be fine.

http://www.staplescenter.com/media/media0000001100.pdf for the use of the winner (of the lottery for tickets) and one guest. And that you may have to go to some location in So Cal to pick up the tickets.

I did enter before I read that.. if I get picked and the pickup is Sun/Mon and not real far I might be able to get them and then hand them over.. or would I get the fever to go? I would, but I have that chair being delivered that day and I haven't driven far at all yet.. so I guess we just check email on Sunday. And as they point out look at your spam folder too.

They do ask your zip code, email add, name and birthdate (but that is partly to prove you are older than 17 (or you have to have an affidavit from parent)


Cannot copy paste the text of the pdf but it says you get an email .

Ah.. there is a clause that says they MAY determine that the holder of the offer is the actual person assigned to that email account.. so.. sounds like they probably won't check.. that would be a nightmare.

Also says void in Rhode Island, Florida, New York.

I heard on the radio that the tickets were going to be released through Ticketmaster.

According to my TiVo schedule, a new reality show is starting this Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. Central on NBC -- Great American Road Trip which begins in Chicago. I hope it doesn't get "screwed" up. America's Got Talent at 8:00. Then L&O:SVU rerun at 9:00 which NBC could change. NBC is just throwing in L&Os all over the place. I'm gettin' real tired of it too -- even the SVUs.

CNN just reported that when the MJ Memorial lottery entries closed, 1.6 million requests had been made for tickets. They will choose randomly 8750 names to get 2 tickets each.

Has anyone heard of or seen the video 'Ghost' Michael did with Stephen King? In King's EW column he talks about it, interesting and sad. His perception of Michael pretty much confirms what I have always believed.

it kind of pisses me off that the LA police dept is all on the loving Michael bandwagon when just a few years ago they were on the let's lock him up or convict him in the media bandwagon. It's not just the police either, people I know that I would debate his innocence are now reminising of all the good he has done.

I never understood all the hoopla when Elvis died, I was too young. I was thinking the other day that Dylan probably won't understand this hoopla over Michael and wondered who would be the 'Elvis' in his lifetime.

Pamy if you go back in time, almost everyone is bigger in death than alive....seems sad in many ways....but it goes back to the old saying...you dont know what you have lost untill it is gone.
Back in the day I listened to MK's music alot and danced my butt off...but as I have grown older, I have not given him much thought except for when he is in the news or what not....when a song comes on, randomly...I find my old beat come back in me.... He had alot of great songs and def a great talent....
Now he is gone and all the songs and moves come back and cause you to remember... most of us..grew up with him...Im 53..so he was always there....I feel that listening to all the music now just stirs up all the feelings and memories of our youth and growth... It feels good to remember, but kinda sad too....
What I find truly amazing though is that his music is still loved by the younger generations that did not grow up with him but were born when he was later in his life... He had a presence that is undeniable.

PAMY, ticket confirmations got pushed back until tomorrow so you won't get an email until then.

And, MARIS, I said that I thought most people who signed up and weren't in the area would probably sell them, and that I try to sell them if I won 2 tickets. Nowhere in that message did I say that you weren't going to give yours away.

Ahh, thanks Neko.. I'll stop looking.. would hope they'd do it early tomorrow if the winners have to seek out ticketmaster locations and all.. I'm sure there are people who would be taking Tuesday off work and would hate to also have to take time off on Monday as well.

Not that I expect to be chosen, but ...

I think one could get in trouble selling them but who the heck knows.

Saw a snippet on the news...teen / 20ish female, "I have to be there. I have to be there. You don't understand, I have to be there." Guess what -- life WILL go on even if you're not and you probably won't.

Somebody has them out on Ebay. The current bid is $5,049.00. I think that is just sad that someone took the chance away from someone else just to make some money.

I got the nope, you didn't get tickets email. But it was a class act to send it so people aren't wondering if their application was ever received.

That sucks about ebay. Wonder if they physically have the tickets yet.

It seems incredibly tacky to use this occasion for personal profit. I guess though that the same thing goes for people selling t-shirts but at least they have a product.

No luck here either. I agree about eBay sale being tacky, tacky, tacky.

A friend got tickets, but I'm not going to be the "date."
