2488 MJ & DR

Wednesday, July 8, 2009

Roman poet Juvenal: “Our virtues are most frequently but vices disguised.”

-------------------

MJ assigned guardianship of his children to his mother, and then to D. Ross if his mother was unwilling or unable.

This has kicked off some speculation as to exactly what was the relationship between MJ and DR.

It doesn't matter to me whether they were simply best of friends, or whether M had a mad wild crush on D which was unrequited, or requited.

What matters to me is the reason given by most of those who deny anything remotely romantic or sexual in their relationship - that the difference in their ages is too great.

Um, D is exactly seven months months older than I, and M was twenty-one months older than The Man.

Their difference was more than a year less than ours.

Ahem.
