RIP Bernie Mac

[draggar]

This was completely unexpected. Bernie Mac died.

It's sad to see him go, he was a good actor and I enjoyed watching him.

Damn, just makes you think about your mortality.

You could be here once second, and poof, gone in another.

RIP

it was very shocking news to hear this morning.

One of the "Kings of Comedy"!


back in the early 90's, i used to go down to the "Cotton Club" in Chicago on Monday nights.

Bernie would be a regular there for "open-mike" night.

always telling stories about his own life in such a way that everyone could relate to.


it was only $5 before 6pm to get in and every Monday night the house was packed.

Micheal and Scottie from the Bulls would often slide by, as would other local celebs.


i remember how Bernie and a guy named "Weasel" used to signify about each other's mother in the club all the time, it was totally "off-the cuff" and usually was the lead-off to his stand-up routine.


Thanks Bernie for the memories, and our deepest sympathy go out to your Family!

PS: we will continue to watch the "Bernie Mack Show"


Chill-lax Bernie!

He was such an awesome performer in Ocean's Thirteen. May he RIP.

His roles, even though never ones to stand out in the front, were always a great addition to any movie. Al 3 of the Oceans movies, Transformers, etc..

It's sad to see someone die so early in life. Bernie Mac was only 50 years old. My condolences go out to his family and friends.
