The Michael Jackson garage sale

It's the mother of all '80s events: Michael Jackson is selling off a few thousand items from his Neverland Ranch.

Among the items you can buy on April 21-25: His glittery solo glove made famous in the Billie Jean video.

Julien's Auctions is handling the massive sale. How big is the collection? Julien's is actually selling a six-volume catalog describing the items for sale. (Cost of the catalog alone? A mere $100.)

Auction Network will broadcast the event on live TV and via the Web. Beginning Feb. 15, interested buyers can place proxy bids and register for the auction. (Hurry, before he runs out of money, though proceeds are reportedly going to charity anyway.)

Though we don't actually know what else is for sale yet, here are some things we'd love to bid on (besides the glove, of course):

• The infamous hyperbaric oxygen chamber he reportedly slept in.
• Bubble's monkey wardrobe.
• Any leftover wedding night photos of Lisa Marie Presley.
• His collection of Bryan Adams records ('80s only, of course).
• His second and fourth noses.
• Empty or near-empty bottles of Valium and Xanax.

What would you like to own from the Michael Jackson collection (in reality or hypothetically)?

Michael looks like a chick tbh ....he looked heeps hot back when he was black after the first time he had surgery he looked the best he ever did but then he went stupid and rewined his face and his skin

I want the glove. Imagine the DNA on that sucker.

I saw an old music video on tv the other night, of the Jackson 5, Michael was actually nice looking then, back when he WAS black and HAD a nose.

Wait, let me make that joke again in a slightly different way...

(My Mac browser loves to embarrass me on this very Mac unfriendly site. I actually have been absent for months because of that. I felt so lucky to have even gotten on. Then today I actually switched from Firefox to Safari when it showed my li'l joke didn't post. So I posted again, only to find -- tada -- like cyber magic, that I'd posted not once but twice.

Or maybe it's just Michael's pixie dust.)

Is the accompanying photo of Michael or Liza Minnelli?

[Rick]

The accompanying photo... Is that Michael or Liza Minnelli?

[Jeff in Cuba]

I'm sure all of Michael's plastic surgery has been to correct problems with his breathing...

..like the fact that he would prefer to be breathing through the face of a 28-year-old Swedish woman.

[Miguel]

Is his old black skin for sale beside the noses?
Come on,seriously,,let`s be nice to Michael.He did become a very nice white woman.

[Mary]

I honestly can't think of a single thing of his that I'd like to have of his - even if were given to me for free. ANYTHING would be kind of creepy for me.

*giggles*
"Truth" can't be serious.

[Spears]

The silence you now hear is the sound of 100,000 readers laughing so hard they can't speak.

[Truth Be Told]

I'd like to own all you haters and drill the truth into your thick heads - Michael is NOT addicted to painkillers, he does NOT sleep in a hyperbaric chamber and never did, he did NOT buy anybody's bones, he did NOT have plastic surgery except twice on his nose - once to correct his breathing and to hit higher notes - and the 2nd after a freak accident at a pepsi ad which burnt his face and hair, and he absolutely did NOT abuse kids. Please conduct some credible research and know your facts before making hell for someone innocent like Michael Jackson.

Wedding hight pictures of Lisa Marie and Xanax....Now there is a party waiting to happen!

[Bassnote]

Just curious, but where did the Bryan Adams post go?

[Walter Cox]

The rusty knife he used to stab Paul McCartney in the back when he bought the Beatles catalogue.

[CHAD]

what about the elephant man's bones? how much do you think they'll go for?

[JohnnyVinyl]

Is Ben for auction?

[Mark in East Texas]

I have no use for post-Quincy Jones MJ, but try to sit still while listening to Wanna Be Startin Somethin. I can separate the freak show from the music, but I can understand when others choose not to. Mama-se, mama-sa, mama-coo-sa!

Re: the auction. In typical MJ style, he waits until the economy goes in the tank before trying to auction his stuff. Financially savvy as always.

[Jack]

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

[Mike in Austin]

Only those who know me would get my sense of humor (Steve, Toni, VGF, Jane and Angelina)...I'm truly a family man...with that said.....I'd love to see how much the underoos are going for! McCAULLLLLLLEEEEYYYYYYY the police are here, ruuuuunnnnnnnnn!! But they might be in the evidence locker waiting to be used on Forensic Files.

[Spears]

I'm totally serious about those Lisa Marie pics. And the Xanax.

[Kevy Metal]

As much as I try I have nothing remotely witty or sarcastic to say about this story. Michael has become such a sad and disappointing persona that it seems impossible to make him the butt of even the lamest of jokes. Sigh.

[Bassnote]

How about his dignity... no, wait, he sold that years ago.

[LEJ]

Sigh. Wish he would crawl back under the rock he came out from under.

I wanna llama..
