Drake 53 Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) So I just found out tonight that Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes had pretty much just finished filming a movie together, where they were both in lead roles, when they died pretty much a day apart. Sam Jackson is also in the movie, called Soul Men, so people are watching him to make sure he's okay. Edited August 15, 2008 by Drake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickenman 9 Posted August 15, 2008 Just him? They're not worrying about the crew or supporting actors? Only rich people can get whatever this is? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheUnknown 39 Posted August 21, 2008 U.S. Rep. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones (Democrat of Ohio) died. Also, Gene Upshaw, the head of the NFL Players' union, has died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chickenman 9 Posted August 21, 2008 I was going to mention the first one. That's too bad. If I remember, she was hilarious on the Colbert Report. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted August 21, 2008 There have been a hell of a lot of members of Congress dying this two-year session: Sen. Craig Thomas (R-WY) Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald (D-CA) Rep. Charlie Norwood (R-GA) Rep. JoAnn Davis (R-VA) Rep. Tom Lantos (D-CA) Rep. Paul Gilmour (R-OH) Rep. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones (D-OH) Rep. Julia Carson (D-IN) Something even more alarming, to me at least, is that most (Millender-McDonald, Carson, Lantos, Norwood, Davis, and Thomas) died of cancer. I don't know how much of that is a coincidence or a sign of something else. By the way, Tubbs-Jones died of a brain aneuyrsm and Gilmour died from a fall.
