The Swayze Chain
Patrick Swayze is dead. It's true. I predictably mentioned this piece of ubiquitous news writing the latest offering on my personal blog & to represent his passing I searched the internet for a short clip, one that would show something a little bit different than what the rest of the world is offering.
Not Roadhouse.
Not Dirty Dancing.
What I found surpassed my wildest expectations & led me link after link to a pointless treasure trove of useless trivia.
Michael Jackson on the Dating Game
Yep.
As if we haven't talked about poor Michael enough, found this clip of old timey MJ from that classic show, The Dating Game.
Kind of cool.
Kind of creepy.
Just sit back and enjoy.
And let's all thank Al Gore again, for the wonder of the Internets....

Imagine There's An Assassin King
I can admit it. I went a little overboard last week, when writing my first blog as a conspiracy theorist. I’d just left a cult, and was feeling incredibly vulnerable. I couldn’t calmly choose one theory – they ALL looked so good!
What matters is that I’m better now. I’ve dropped, at least for now, several of my earlier held conspiracy theories. I’ve decided to instead concentrate on one at a time, judging each by its merit and the quality of the websites devoted to them.
As of today, and until I find something more intriguing, I have become a supporter of independent investigative journalist Steve Lightfoot and his mind-blowing theory.
As he proves on his website, former U.S. President/criminal Richard Nixon commissioned horror author Stephen King to assassinate the Peacenik Commander of the British Invasion, John Lennon.
I know. That’s how I felt when I first learned. Just take in a deep breath, let it out, and continue reading. We’re through the worst of it.
Cocaine: Was It Why Billy Mays Screamed So Much?
What is up with these infomercial guys?
First there the ShamWow guy was arrested for punching a prostitute. And now, NOW, it's been disclosed that our favorite, really loud, informercial pitchman, Billy Mays had cocaine in his system when he died. The Hillsborough County medical examiner's office listed cocaine as a "contributory cause of death," of the bearded, boisterous TV pitchman who toted gadgets and cleaning products like Orange Glo and OxiClean.
Was nose candy a contributing factor for all the screaming?Â
Â
Freedom Haters, will put the question to you. Does this seem like a man who used cocaine? Is the following video an informercial equivalent of watching Sid Vicious singing My Way?Â
Celebrities Are Still Not In The Clear: Breakfast Club Director John Hughes Dies
Freedom Haters thought the celebrity death madness was over. We thought the death of infomercial spokesman great, Billy Mays, would be the last celebrity death we would see in a long, long, time.
We were sadly mistaken.
The conspiracy that has taken the lives of such notable celebrities as Ed McMahon, Karl Malden, and Michael Jackson continues on. This time around the celebrity death frenzy has claimed the life of `80's teen comedy director great, John Hughes.
Best known for the greatest teen comedy of all-time, The Breakfast Club, Hughes also directed such classic comedies as Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Sixteen Candles, National Lampoon's Vacation movie, and the much, much overlooked Curly Sue.
Not a lot off people know that John Hughes started his career as a writer for the original National Lampoon magazine, where he penned the story that would later be the basis for the Vacation movie. In the original story, the Clark Griswold character shoots Walt Disney in the foot at the end of the tale.
As a tribute to the `80's teen comedy master, Freedom Haters is proud to bring you a little taste of the Breakfast Club:
Dragging Out The Bones of Michael Jackson: 1984 Fiery Pepsi Commercial Mishap Surfaces
Michael Jackson's body isn't even in the ground yet and already they are dragging out his bones like they were the Elephant Man's.
Remember when Jacko's hair caught on fire during the filming of a Pepsi commercial? Well, guess what? The video of that accident just surfaced today. (I'm sure for a very hefty price.)
On January 27th, 1984 young Michael J. suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his face and scalp while shooting a commercial to hawk Pepsi Cola at the LA Shrine Auditorium.Â
Thousands of fans witnessed their idol ablaze as Michael kept dancing even though his head was on fire.Â
 Today, US Weekly announced to the world that they have the exclusive video of that 1984 accident. Surely CNN got a complete woody over the news.Â
