As many of you will have already seen the evening news, you already know about the upcoming trial of Michael Jackson. Well, I live in Santa Maria!! Is there a chance to cash in on this Circus? This is a small city of 80,000, our hotels, motels & restaurants are going top have a hey day over this. Any ideas of how I can benefit? Am open to all SANE ideas

Do you have an extra bedroom to rent to a newsman? That might be your only way to do it. Advertise in the paper and see what happens.

Hey, I have a Michael Jackson pinback button. Maybe I could offer it as an incentive to some newsperson. Rent them my spare room for a coupla hundred a day. I'm only 30 miles from Santa Maria.
Ha ha!

Libra, I wish I did, but that is my office. I am not that far from the courthouse, about aq mile. I would love to be on that jury. The pay is only $5.00/day + mileage so I wouldn't get rich, but what an experience. I really don't have a clue as to whether he is guilty or not. I will say that he is "strange" As to his guilt, I would have to be absolutely convinced. Oh Lucy, you got in while was trying to write an eloquent reply. For the rest of you, Lucy & I have met!! Professionally that is.

you could stand outside the court house and sell 1 white glove at a time lol ...you might get even better sells if you do the moon walk while selling them

Try to get a press pass from the court clerk. Then set up an auction for it where only the supermarket tabloids are pre-approved to bid. You'll make a fortune. Do your homework first. Find out what kind of china the court clerk's wife collects. If you happen to have an item she needs, you're in like flynn

Sell a T-Shirt combo of cuffed Michael Jackson and Drunk Drivin' Diana Ross. Maybe a 'Where have our heros gone' logo.

Sparkz, that's a great idea! I wonder if Sanmar could pull it off?
One thing that makes me happy is I'm in San Luis Obispo County, not Santa Barbara County. No chance I'll ever be called for that jury.
Sanmar, you must be cuckoo! It'll prolly take at least six months to get it done. Still, might be interesting to see the freak up close. Oh, I know, take your digital camera. You could post pix here for the rest of us.
LOL!

Ace: That is a Helz of an idea. I will look into it. I know a guy who does silk screening. Might be able to work something out with him. This could be a gold mine!!!

I sell a couple Michael Jackson items. I can't say that his items are selling like hot cakes but I can say is that they LOVE HIM IN EUROPE!
