Do check out Bobby's video. It's a work of art. But be warned: it contains adult themes and some strong language. So if you watch my videos with young people, maybe watch Bobby's when they're not around.    • Michael Jackson on Fire Diorama  

And a huge thanks to my good friend BEC HILL who introduced me to Bobby. PS Hello to everyone reading this from A Problem Squared.

UPDATE: The envelope of pin-board paraphernalia has been claimed! https://twitter.com/standupmaths/stat...
First person to find me IN A PUBLIC SPACE can have the pin-up board (without the pins or board). I've put all the bits in an envelop and will carry it with me whenever I'm in public. Don't try to hunt me down at home. It'll be weird.

I think this is the original claim that it was the mid-point of his life. From April 2019.

Here is the regulation governing daylight saving time in Indiana when Michael Jackson was born:
1957: "The General Assembly votes to make Central time the official time of the state but permit any community to switch to daylight-saving time during the summer."

This website claims Gar did switch to daylight saving in 1958, specifically: "27 Apr 1958 - Time Zone Change (CST → EST)" but I'm not sure where that information has come from.

Huge thanks to my Patreon supports who keep in strings and pins. Join and you'll have a head-start the next I foolishly encourage the internet to hunt me down.   / standupmaths
