First thing I saw when I opened the news page this morning.  He was one of my favorite comedians.  I saw Mr. Mac once during the first season of the "The Bernie Mac Show."  He was one of the coolest celebs. I've met.

It's scary because there was a "gag" or joke going on for years that Bernie Mac was dead and he would go out and said I'm not dead, I'm still here....etc.  Now he's really gone.  He will be miss.
