Posted By: MIISRAEL Bride on July 07, 2009 HOMETOWN MEMPHIS: 07.07.2009 SEE AND SAW Let’s see…. What millions saw ... WE SAW MICHAEL LEAVE, AND BID HIM ..SO LONG… 07.07. 2009 National/Global News Millions watched as thousands flocked to say farewell to Michael Jackson’s Memorial today. Nationwide and fans the world over attended the dedication and memorial services at The Staples Center in LA California where they finally got to say a final farewell. As many also watched in Memphis, fans of Michael shared their tears and sent their heart felt sympathy to the Jackson family. Some Memphis fans said that they felt better now that he is finally laid to rest. “He will be greatly missed” one fan said as another said “I feel so much better now.” Another admirer stated: “Everything was just right, I want to remember the positive things he did.” What they saw is a personal to each one of them. Now those who didn’t see what they saw may see it on the inter-net, or by watching from their own personal recording to see what millions saw in a celebration of the life of Michael Jackson this day of July 07, 2009. Read this next story of something that’s been seen at least once… I THOUGHT WE SAW THIS LETTER BEFORE? 07. 06. 2009 Memphis, TN Memphis Mayor, W.W. Herenton sent another letter to City Council Chairman Myron Lowery and the council members which stated that he is delaying his retirement date until July 30, 2009. In the letter the Mayor wrote "..a retirement reception in his honor will be held in Hall of Mayors at City Hall on July 31, 2009 from 2:00p.m- 4:00p.m.” The Mayor previous sent a letter of stating that he will be resigning as of July 10, 2009. He wrote also in his second letter of the concerns regarding a Pro-tem he sees will require his closure. The letter of the Mayor also states that he foresees a possible “friendly” lawsuit. Council members later voted today to honor his request, but sawys ways which will legally bind his request to change his resignation date again in the near future. What? Will Memphians ever see the Mayor retire? We’ll just have wait...we'll have to see. Then we might finally get to say…We saw that coming! You see I have another story for you…it’s I DIDN’T SEE THAT SCAM ON FACEBOOK! 07.06.2009 Memphis, TN Memphis Resident, DeAnne Gammon was truly shocked to see a message with her face on Facebook saying that she was stranded in London. The message read that she was in desperate need of a friend and cash. Facebook friends were told that DeAnne cell phone and cash were stolen and she needed $800. The internet friends saw chats with their friend around 2 a.m. while the real DeAnne was home asleep in her bed in Memphis. Her friends on Facebook saw it was a scam asked a few tricky questions, then picked up the phone and called her at home, but one of her friends had already wired $500. Gammon saw a lesson well learned she said.. “You just have to be careful of what you put on the internet.” “I know I’m going to be a lot more conscious from now on.” Experts say internet users should see to change their password at least once every three months. Hey. “I’m encouraging you to be cautious and see that you change your password often!” You know what? …. I saw that I’m out of stories so, it’s see you later! Wait MIISRAEL...We have to see you say it! " You do? Really... Oh.....alright.." "I thought I saw a putty-cat!" There it is , you SEE and SAW it.

I can't speak for everyone, but I too feel a sense of closure for Michael. The controversy continues over what he's left behind...ect...finances, children, former wives ( Lisa Marie included) I'm sure it'll all come out in the wash and get resolved. As far as our mayor, he's been mayor so long! He's so busy and spontaneous! I think overall he's served his terms as mayor for many years and given great service as well as the many stir-ups. He maintains lots of zeal. I wish him the best. Now he has his goals set on becoming congressman. What else? He's such a vibrate personality...the kind that people love to hate!
