Celebrities like to use twitter to let the people know! (what’s on their mind)
Michael Jordan LOVES his root beer (PIC):
Makes me want a float. I can’t remember the last time I had one.
From the digg comments:
“I worry that I’ve tried them all.”
Yeah, I think that’s a fear that plagues us all.
–first world problems
–
His latest tweet:
“I had a dream last night about lots of cats and enormous rabbits in a barn.”
That’s the man I idolized when I was a little kid…
still as awesome as he was when I was five.
It’s funny to read them in MJ’s bittersweet tone:
I think this twitter page is now my favorite site, but is it real? Weeell…
The (clearly) fake Michael Jordan account is a prime example. I mean, it’s a hoot, but it’s not real, and yet Twitter seems not to care about it one little bit.
So it’s not twitter-verified… yet. Still, I think any 3 or so tweets on that page can absolutely make your day, and you will find at least 2 of any of the 3 tweets agreeable and ultimately true (proverbial, even!). I’m just going to copy and paste ‘em all right below. Random MJ thoughts!:

BTW, Rumor confirmed that “his airness” will indeed be adorning the cover of the latest NBA game! And NBA Jam is even being brought back (seen at this year’s E3): He’s on FIYAR!
Update: Twitter suspended the MJ account! Luckily I copied & pasted them above for posterity entertainment purposes.
