The passing of two cultural icons

Today, June 25 2009, is a day of great sadness. Today two cultural icons passed into the memory of millions of people and into history.

For many, Farrah Fawcett was the sex symbol of the 1970s after that famous picture of her in the red bathing suit came out in the mid-70s and for her stint on the TV show "Charlie's Angels". Earlier today at 62, Miss Fawcett passed away from cancer and she will be missed.

For millions around the world he was considered "The King of Pop". His music influenced two if not three generations of music fans around the world. Micheal Jackson's sudden passing at the age of 50 has shocked not just the music world but the world-at-large. His music,influence and success may never be topped in the years and decades to come. Mr. Jackson will be remembered by millions for years to come.

Rest in Peace, Farrah and Michael. You will be missed.

Live Long and Prosper.
