Do you think this is a joke?

It was the headline to this that got my attention... "Jackson Wants Giant Robot of Himself to Roam Vegas Desert and Fire 'Laser Beams'." (http://http://music.yahoo.com/read/news/41620594)

Not sure if I believe this is for real, though...

OMG! That's HILARIOUS!

Frankly, I wouldn't put it past old Michael... he's WAY off, as we know...

But that would be too funny... If I ever become that wealthy, rest assured... I will do exactly what he wants to... and more... :D

[Sammy56]

Well, I did a search and it's coming up on quite a few sites, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was real.


If I ever become that wealthy, rest assured... I will do exactly what he wants to... and more... I don't understand. If you become wealthy, why would you do what he wants? Unless you are having some kind of relationship with him...:D

[Perfectionist]

Mikey was the Man in his day ..... but now he's all washed up ..... his career won't be saved by a Robot or anything else !!

[loganosborne]

That's funny and knowing Micheal this is probably real. Why he would want this is beyond me though.

[MaximumPain]

:rolling: Wow with that freak I dont doubt that its real. I agree with perfectonist he used to be a great artist but now hes a washed up old freak.

[liberdave]

Wow. I want that.

I was totally waiting to read...

It has now been claimed that his plans include an elaborate show in Vegas, which would feature the giant Jacko striding around the desert, firing laser beams.

...at the people, subjugating them to his will.

Seriously, if this goes down, I think this will be the biggest event this century. Bigger than 9/11, the internet, his sister's nipple during halftime, my birth and the atom bomb, rolled in together.

Now that I think about it, I kind of want a giant laser-shooting robot too. It could stand astride the Mobile River, a mighty Colossuss, and allow me to rule this miserable town with a (literally) iron fist.
:evlaf:

[The Space Pope]

Only if you give me rides on it, jinxz (also from Mobile).

[jinxz]

Oh, sure thing. I might even let you shoot the lasers a few times.

We're only a couple days off April Fool's day, maybe someone got a head start.

Publicity stunt.

From a technical standpoint the real thing would bankrupt him.

But it does reveal the workings of his mind.

Yeah, the thought had crossed my mind. Tool pulled an early April Fool's stunt last year.

Why am I reminded of that cheesy movie "Mars Attacks" ?

And Tom Jones at the end singing to the animals in a cutefest?

Because everything in my life reminds me of that awesome awesome movie.

[boromeer3]

I want a giant robot shooting fire and lasers.

Giant robots, fire, and lasers all rock you to the core.
