RIP: Comedian/Actor Bernie Mac
Posted By: Moonlight Pictures on Aug 9, 4:26 pm

Just days after being hospitalized for pneumonia, actor and comedian Bernie Mac passed away at the age of 50 at Northwestern Hospital early Saturday morning.

Mac was hospitalized with pneumonia on August 1st and the following day, a source close to the family said that Mac was in “very, very critical” condition. The news comes just one day after reports that Mac was recovering and would be released from the hospital in a few weeks.

“Actor/comedian Bernie Mac passed away this morning from complications due to pneumonia in a Chicago area hospital,” his publicist, Danica Smith, said in a statement from Los Angeles.

She said no other details were available and asked that his family’s privacy be respected.

Career highlights for the Chicago native include his FOX sitcom “The Bernie Mac Show” and his co-starring role in the popular “Ocean’s” series opposite George Clooney and Brad Pitt. He had recently completed the movie Old Dogs and has two movies opening in November, DreamWorks’ animated sequel Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa and Malcolm Lee’s Soul Men.

Mac leaves behind Rhonda, his wife of 30 years, their daughter Je’Niece and a granddaughter Jasmine.

System Administrator Day
Posted By: Candace on Jul 25, 4:12 pm

Yes, today is System Administrator Appreciation Day. Thanks to the folks at Wired for alerting us to this obscure and geeky Holiday.

Since we have our own SysAdmin (Rob) we would really like to give Rob a very big amount of props for all he does. Rob actually holds a lot of responsibilities here at TGM. Anything related to the site, network, etc is usually Rob’s doing. Not to mention he’s also “El Presidente”. Really, this guy does a ton. He never stops working for us.

If it wasn’t for Rob, all of this great media to listen to, read and watch would not be here. If it wasn’t for Rob, there would be a lot wrong with the site. Why? Because I sometimes break things on the back end and, Rob swoops in, clicks the mouse a few times, presses a button or two and things are magically fixed!

So today, if you are at your office and you see one of your SysAdmins tell them why you love them. Here at TGM, we’re giving some massive props and much love to our very own Rob. We would also like to present Rob with this video to show our appreciation.

Yes Geeks and Geekettes, Rob truly is our Captain James T Kirk…Tiberius to his friends.

Edit by Leto: There isn’t a “Useless guy that does nothing but complain about stuff day” for me, is there?
