It's Not Just Me, Right?

I mean, basically everybody's dying this year, right? If it weren't for the subject of this particular RIP, I'd say it's like the Black Plague all over again. But that would sound insensitive. In this case, unintentionally so.

I saw Bernie Mac on the "Kings of Comedy" tour, closing night in Greensboro, NC. I don't even know what it was about his delivery, but it was so dynamically RIGHT THERE IN PERSON that whether stand-up, television, or movie, I always felt like he was speaking directly to me. Especially that thing he said about my mom. When he jabbed me in the chest.

Sigh.
