Bernie Mac passed away today at the age of 50; it is a rather shocking death on any number of levels. You don't expect relatively clean living individuals to die at 50; I had no idea that he was actually 50 (I would have guessed a half-dozen years younger than that); he reportedly died from complications from pneumonia, which is a rare cause of death for rich people living in the 21st century.
Bernie was probably best known for his stand-up, his Fox TV Show, and his role in the Ocean's Eleven series. But for me, his work in the cult comedy classic, "Who's The Man" was his finest moment. He delivered lines like, "Look at you two, looking like Before and After" and "I was kissin'...on her TITTIES!" with simply brilliant comedic timing. I am in some ways, a simple man.
Fare thee well, Bernie Mac. I hope everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
