“This is it. I just want to say these will be my final show performances in London. This is it, when I say this is it, this is it,” Jackson told the crowd. “I’ll be performing the songs my fans want to hear — this is it. This is really it. This is the final curtain call.

They basically use them in places where the meat is less suspect and/or noticeable. (continue reading…)
