bad was diabolically good, that and thriller are fantastic disco albums, off the wall, probably the greatest disco album of all time. Dangerous and History a bit ballady but damn good ballads. Invincible probably his weakest but still fantastic. And thats not counting his Jackson 5 and Jacksons stuff. The man is a musical god there is no doubt about that, he's just a little odd

Use of 'foo' and 'bar' as temporary variable names is a common programmer idiom, but 'FUBAR' (fvcked up beyond all recognition) is a Vietnam term (IIRC). I think the latter gave rise to the former though.
