This woman has been supporting michael since 2005Yes I know that but didn't she say Michael slept with Grace or something weird like that? Also I think I may have confused her with someone else though I can't remember their name for the life of me.

Quote from: "sprint911"Why is everybody off topic :?I know, right? I think the classical music and the fact that it was in a play in a scene where he was trying to convince his family member that he's alive is a huge clue for sure. Michael loved classical music and I'm sure he probably saw that play. I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you Sprint911.

Wow serenity! Great research, buddy. I love your work..
So today I was researching my own heritage and I came across the Romani people.Romani PeopleThe Romani (also Romany, Romanies, Romanis, Roma or Roms; exonym: Gypsies; Romani: Romane or Rromane, depending on the dialect) are an ethnic group living mostly in Europe, who trace their origins to medieval India.The English term Gypsy (or Gipsy) originates from the Greek word Aigyptioi, whence modern Greek gifti, in the belief that the Romanies originated in Egypt, and in one narrative were exiled as punishment for allegedly harboring the infant Jesus. As described in Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre Dame, the medieval French referred to the Romanies as Egyptians. The term has come to bear pejorative connotations. The word "Gypsy" in English has become so pervasive that many Romani organizations use it in their own organizational names.In North America, the word "Gypsy" is commonly used as a reference to lifestyle or fashion, and not to the Romani ethnicity. The Spanish term gitano and the French term gitan may have the same origin.World War IIDuring World War II, the Nazis embarked on systematic attempt at genocide of the Romanies, known as the Porajmos. They were marked for extermination and sentenced to forced labor and imprisonment in concentration camps. They were often killed on sight, especially by the Einsatzgruppen (mobile killing units) on the Eastern Front. The total number of victims has been variously estimated at between 220,000 to 1,500,000; even the lowest number would count as one of the largest mass murders in history.You are not allowed to view links.

I didn't find conformation but I did find some other interesting facts.Liza MinnelliLiza May Minnelli (born March 12, 1946) is an American singer and actress. She is the daughter of legendary singer and actress, Judy Garland, and film director Vincente Minnelli.You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginVincente Minnelli - Born as Lester Anthony Minnelli in Chicago, he was the youngest of four known sons, only two of whom survived to adulthood, born to Marie Émilie Odile Lebeau (stage name: Mina Gennell) and Vincent Charles Minnelli. His father was musical conductor of Minnelli Brothers' Tent Theater. Minnelli's Chicago-born mother was of French Canadian descent and his paternal grandfather was from Sicily. The family toured small towns primarily in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois before settling permanently in Delaware, Ohio. You are not allowed to view links.

You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginWhen I researched the autopsy report I discovered that the blood that was supposedly taken had been labelled "Gershwin". This lead me to George and Ira Gershwin and the song from "Porgy & Bess" entitled "It Ain't Necessarily So".It Ain't Necessarily So"It Ain't Necessarily So" is a popular song with music by George Gershwin and lyrics by Ira Gershwin. The song comes from the Gershwins' opera Porgy and Bess (1935) where it is sung by the character Sportin' Life, a drug dealer, who expresses his doubt about several statements in the Bible.The role of Sportin' Life was created by John W. Bubbles. Other notable incarnations of the character include Cab Calloway on stage and Sammy Davis, Jr. in the 1959 film.The song has been covered a number of times during the Rock era. It was a major Australian hit in 1965 for singer Normie Rowe, and included by The Moody Blues in their 1965 album, The Magnificent Moodies. The Moody Blues' version is notable for the fact that it was their first recording with band member Ray Thomas singing the lead vocals. It was also included by The Honeycombs on their debut-album, Bronski Beat in 1984, Cher in 1994, and Jamie Cullum in 2002, although most notably sung by Aretha Franklin and Bobby Darin on his 1959 album That's All. Sting also recorded a version of it. It Ain't Necessarily So is also the title of the autobiography of the American musician Larry Adler.You are not allowed to view links.

To me, I'm just a gypsy. I love to work, rehearse, get up and go to dance classes. I'm startled, thrilled, and grateful, and all that jazz.

Thank you Sprint911.There is more to this clue than just this.The song "Flight of the Bumblebee" appears in the third act of the opera "The Tale of Tsar Saltan" as Pearl Jr. says but she didn't research further. You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginThis opera was written by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. The libretto or written portion of the opera was created by Vladimir Belsky, and is based on the poem of the same name by Aleksandr Pushkin.The Tale of Tsar Saltan is not part of the standard operatic repertoire in the West. The latest production in the United States was probably that at Indiana University in April 1987, in English.You are not allowed to view links.

No, he did not fake his death, he was killed on duel with Dantes in very young age.
Ok, now on to "what is a Gypsy":We are not a lifestyle, we are not even a culture, though we have one. It is a deep, rich, old, and traditional one at that. ****We are a GENETIC ETHNICITY. "Gypsyness" is not determined by lifestyle or desire. It is carried on our DNA. You cannot become one. You are born one or you are not.Firstly, most of the Gypsies are Rromani or those related to us (Sinti, for example). Others have been tacked on over the years such as the Irish Travelers. "Gypsy" is an umbrella term. It originated because some bright bulb decided that we originated in Egypt. We did not... we came through India about a thousand years ago and the current theory is that we were originally Asian.There are about a million of us in America out of about 300 million residents.Most of us have immense ties to our culture and our families... that is something that comes from within our culture itself. Also, culturally and historically we were nomadic and still are, to a very limited capacity (we were forcibly settled via laws to make us but now many of us would choose to live that way, at least in America). That, in and of itself, creates a mindset and a culture that is different from a culture based on a land mass. It is difficult for scholars to understand a nomadic culture, much less laymen.We have a very distinct culture that cannot really be understood without knowing our history. That is a long, long and convoluted mess. Gypsies make up only 2.5% of the population of Romania: This is not as straightforward as it might seem. Many authoritative sites say "Romania," for indeed the language of European gypsies is called "Rom." But some researchers believe that prior to Romania, the gypsy people were natives of the Sind region of what is now Pakistan. The ethnicity of Gypsies may in fact be Israelite. The destruction of the temple in 70ad saw assyrians invade Israel and exhile many hebrews ti media persia, media persia became northwest india and later became todays Pakistan.
I searched yahoo answers and there were posts by a few Gypsies who seem to think they are the lost northern tribes of Israel, not only has DNA proved that they are not Israelites but they have no past to our culture, language, or beliefs. Maybe they are ashamed of their ancestry? Why?
Gypsies and Jews: two peoples in a foreign world and their music The historical fate of gypsies and Jews has clear parallels. Both peoples originally come from the Orient (Jews from the Middle East, gypsies from India), they were treated as outsiders in Europe for centuries and were subject to persecution. The climax of this persecution was the Nazi period in Germany, when millions of Jews and ten-thousands of Sinti and Roma were murdered only because of their heritage.
