Make
sure to stock up on tissue before the crying starts for real
this Friday, the King's 25th anniversary of his last rock
n'roll breath on earth.
This
dramatically coincides with Marilyn Monroe's last breath 40
years ago this month, and Princess Diana's last breath August,
5 years ago.
Thankfully,
this coincidence has not gone unnoticed by people publishing
magazines, television channels and documentary makers.
But
did these icons intend to die this time of year, or was it
all just a huge mistake?
An
Expert: "These pop icons just had a great sense of
publicity."
"Dying
like they did, in the low quality news-silly season, was
such a good move, ensuring future years of mourning in the
sun. Had they died in February, would we really want to
sob the same way, outside, in short sleeved shirts?"
A
mourner told us: "I have a whole garage full of tissue
paper and I am intending to start my own crying ritual at
6am on the 16th and don't intend stopping for a whole week.
I have towels and small furry animals if I run out of tissue."
This,
from a woman who unsuccessfully changed her name to Marilyn
Monroe in 1978 but, due to a drug problem, wrote the name
Mary Moo.
We
asked Mary Moo how upset she will be this month:
"I will feel like a woman without her man in the middle
of a country and western concert."
"Don't
get me started, I want to save my bawling for the King on
Friday."
