There is the whole plastic surgery thing.

And the whole fondness for children thing.

And the whole fascial mask thing.

And now he’s come up with a baby (no one know where it came from or who the mom is) and he DANGLES IT OUT OF A WINDOW WITH A TOWEL OVER ITS HEAD!!!

Nutty as a fruit cake. Too bad, though. He made some decent music in his time. Before he went all loony, that is.

I don’t know if I would consider someone with a fake tipped nose, who dangles their 4 year old over 4 story railings with one hand, insane.

That baby’s less than a year old.

Is the towel so that the dangling wouldn’t scare him… or Michael’s nose?

Yes, yes, yes…he is definitely a mentally unstable person.

I could have told you that a long time ago.
