First Bernie Mac, now Isaac Hayes! What the hell? Someone get Kanye West and Diddy into protective custody. Don't worry about Fiddy, he's been shot 9 times, he'll be ok. Has anyone checked on Martin Lawrence?

Oh, yeah. What a loss it would be if Diddy died. That's total sarcasm right there.

Are we sure he didn't just reach the next "level" in $cientology?

Not to take away from the loss, because damn…its sad, but on reading this I thought hmm…I can often be found unconscious next to my running treadmill (especially after a night of drinking).

But really, what a voice! Hayes will be missed indeed!

why isn't an autopsy planned? don't they usually do an autopsy if somebody just drops dead for no apparent reason?

He had health problems. He had a stroke a few years back.

so people can just fall over dead for no apparent reason and nobody will look into it if they've had recent health problems? that seems stupid to me. what if some crazy person put poison in his drink? it's not likely but it could happen.
