Bernie Mac’s Laid Up

August 2nd, 2008 // 9 Comments

Bulging-eyed (not here) comedian Bernie Mac has been hospitalized in Chicago with pneumonia. Did I ever tell you that one of my younger brothers looks JUST like Bernie Mac when he’s shitfaced? No, he’s not black, but his eyes bulge out of his head and I keep waiting for him to imitate his gay nephew looking for some “milk and cookays!”

“Mr. Mac is responding well to treatment and will be released soon,”
his rep says. “He asked that his privacy and that of his
family is respected while he gets well.”

Mac’s pneumonia reportedly stems from his pre-existing condition of sarcoidosis, which is an “autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in organs such as the lungs or lymph nodes.”

Mac’s 50. Maybe his ass shouldn’t have been so quick to mock his gay nephew? Huh? Huh? I jest. Christ, I mock gays way more than he does. We’re a funny people. Get well soon, Bernie!

    You are in our prayers Bernard Mac. My family is from St. Louis, Wentzville, St. Charles, Jefferson City, and Warrenton Mo.. And your eyes are beautiful, don’t ever let anyone tell you any different. My son, looks alot like you. He is 17, and I have always sang that song, jimi mac when are you coming back to him, to get him to sleep, since he was born. And where, I work, one of my co-workers always says to me on a daily basis, that I remind her of those big fish(black) at walmart with the big ole eyes. Because, mine are so big. Don’t worry about a thing.God, won’t give up on you. Never, Never Give up on you!

    Love in Christ,
    Philli

    This message is for the family.

    OUR HEAVENLY FATHER HAS REACHED DOWN TO THIS EARTH AND PLUCKED A BEAUTIFUL ROSE FROM HIS GARDEN, THAT ROSE WAS THE LIFE OF BERNIE MAC. GOD SAID YOUR WORK IS DONE, YOU MAY NOW MOVE FROM LABOR TO REWARD, FROM EARTH TO HEAVEN. GOD WILL CONTINUOUSLY BLESS THE FAMILY AND GIVE YOU PEACE, ONLY IF, YOU TRUST IN HIM WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT, AND NEVER LEAN UNTO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING BUT ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, HE WILL GIVE YOU PEACE REGARDING SUCH A TRAGIC EVENT FOR US HERE ON THIS EARTH. BUT TO GOD HE HAS CALLED HOME HIS SON TO BE WITH HIM IN PARADISE TIL THE END OF TIME, FOR ETERNITY. HE WILL KEEP YOU IN YOUR TIME OF GRIEF, HOPE THE ENTIRE FAMILY RECIEVES THIS PRAYER FOR PEACE IN YOUR LIVES. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
