Michael Jackson GK:
Membership week is coming soon on many of these public
radio stations, and this year, as our way of saying thank you for your
support, each person who sends a membership contribution will get to vote
to decide which of these three ladies will marry Michael Jackson ----
yes, the reclusive pop star has agreed that, as a service to public radio,
he will marry either --- Jennifer--- SS: I absolutely love animals, especially giraffes. And costumes.
GK: Or Lurleen---- FN (SOUTHERN): I'm from the south so I'm no stranger to weirdness.
I always wanted children with hankies over their faces. And a husband
with a removable nose. GK: Or Meghan--- SS: Get me out of here. This is way too weird. TR (MICHAEL): She is giving me very good vibrations. The girl
is mine. The doggone girl is mine. GK: And you, the public radio members, get to vote ---- who will
Michael marry?--- will it be the animal lover---- SS: Choose me, Michael. I have all your albums. And I've had reconstructive
facial surgery, too. GK: Or the Southern girl---- FN: There's a little girl inside me who wants to take care of
the little boy inside you. GK: Or Megan---- SS: Oh don't even start- I wouldn't marry that freak if you paid
me! TR (MICHAEL): A freak? That is so cruel. I love it. SS: If my friends find out that I'm in a contest to see who marries
Michael Jackson---- TR (MICHAEL): I want to get to know you. I can't let you get away. SS: Why did you do that to your nose? TR (MICHAEL): I had a sinus problem. SS: Give me a break. That's like saying the Venus deMilo had a
nail biting problem. TR (MICHAEL): You're sort of devilish in a nice way. GK: You decide---- will it be the animal trainer---- SS: I think wild deer go so well with your eyes. GK: Or the Southern girl---- FN: Wonderland. What a perfect name for a home. GK: Or the public radio listener from New Jersey---- SS: To live in a zoo and look at that face for the rest of my
life? TR (MICHAEL): We wouldn't live together. We'd just enjoy some
playful fun on balconies. GK: Membership week. It's coming up soon. © Garrison Keillor 2003 |
