R.I.P. Bernie "Mac Man" Mac

You know, there are some celebrity deaths that you go awwwwww. Then there are the ones who REALLY hit you HARD like a death in the family. The last time I felt this way was when Ray Charles passed.

My pain is NOTHING like the pain that his family is going through right now. I only knew OF Bernie Mac, they loved and lived with him.

I met the Mac Man wayyyyyyyyy back in the early Def Jam days. He was a naturally funny kind person.

In this business of fake folk-it was nice sitting and talking with someone who reminded you of your funny uncle Bug. lol Where you are holding your sides and just gasping for breath because what they are saying is TRUE but the delivery is just too funny. lol

I won't cry, but my heart is a little sad today. I will choose to do what I have been doing all day off an on. Remembering those one liners and laughing at his timeless jokes.
