And saddly, another great comedian has passed away. R.I.P. Bernie...

I didn't really enjoy Mac's comedy. Scratch that, I didn't like it at all. But it's sad when anybody dies that young.

Because you're weird.
Isaac Hayes is down, too, less than 24 hours after Mac. They filmed a movie together for release next year. Sam Jackson is in it, too. I'm waiting to see if he's dead tomorrow.

*shrug* I could demonstrate the quality of his comedy which I didn't like, but I don't know the word for the quality.
There's a thread about Hayes, over at "Another Jaffa goes to seek Kheb."

I think a lot of his comedy revolved around his rather hard childhood, so to really understand it, you either had to be there, or be in/have been in a similar impoverished situation. I haven't seen much of his work either, but, yeah, it's sad. And so soon after George Carlin too.

It was more his delivery and acting style than his actual material as a stand-up comic, none of which I've seen.

I work with a couple of people who would be that dumb, except that every minute inch of the McDonald's where I work is covered with web-enabled security cameras and the district manager likes to watch the feeds from home. When he's not sitting in his truck in the parking lot with a pair of binoculars that is.

Wow! Imagine that people that run a company called "Bigfoot expeditions" were the ones to find a dead Bigfoot! Not a park ranger or local hunter... Afterwards they probably won the Powerball Lottery, as long as they're able to work extremely implausable odds.

Well, I'll have to catch the press conference and find out.

There's a bet about this at Longbets.org somewhere, that Bigfoot would be found before some-odd year. Based on...no logic, just the guy wants it to be true I think
