I remember a line from another late comedian, Rodney Dangerfield: "hey, at my age I could go any day; and I hope so because I haven't gone today yet!"
RIP Bernie and thanks for the laughs... |

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR | It seems to me that maybe in my younger daze I didn't notice some of the people "leaving the building"...
Or maybe it was because they weren't of "my generation"...
I noticed went some rock star OD'ed, but otherwise I must not have been paying attention.
Although I didn't really keep-up with Bernie Mac, upon seeing film clips of some of his movies I recognize who he is and he was pretty funny.
I said all that to say, without an OD or a plane crash... 50 seems kinda young to just Die.
Rest in Peace, Dude. |

| In October I'm going to a wedding - man it makes a change from funerals. First one in about 10 years.
This is the downside of getting old. |

| Way to young, very funny guy. Had a wide open acting career going too. Paid his dues to the comedy circuts and was just becoming a big name.
Makes guy's like me in our late 40's take notice of life when someone this young dies. |
