We all heard the sad news of the passing of comedian and actor Bernie Mac this past Saturday. Mac had been hospitalized for pneumonia, a rep for the star released a statement last week that Mac was responding well to treatments, and denied that Mac chronic sarcoidosis(rare autoimmune disease that can affect the skin, lungs, heart, brain and nervous system, eyes, and other organs) was a factor. People magazine revealed that Mac was indeed in much worse condition than his rep let on. Apparently, he was in ICU for much longer than actually reported, and had contracted a second strain of pneumonia while hospitalized. Although Mac’s sarcoidosis condition was not the immediate cause of his death, the condition greatly affected his immune system.

My prayers and sincere well wishes go out to his family.

The Queen of Mean, Leona Helmsley’s privileged pooch, Trouble may find herself at the pound. According to the NY Post, a judge damn near ripped the silver bone out of the 9 year old maltese’s mouth! The paper reports Trouble lost $10 million of her $12 million trust fund to charity after a judge signed off on a deal that gives the Helmsley’s disinherited grandchildren (o shall I say grand-man and woman…they’re like 40 and 37) $6 million. This really sucks doggy balls for Trouble whose living in Florida with some guy named Carl (who btw says 2 million should be enough for him her). Honestly I can see where this is going….I imagine a year from now Trouble will be in some pound matted and sweaterless……..Uh hold on I think Trouble’s trying to tell me something….

Me: What’s that Girl?…..

Trouble: (freshly groomed) Woof

Me: What?! Carl slipped and broke his crown on mutt kibble? Huh? and the overgrown “greedy grand-diggers” accidentally fell down the well? Oh no…so what does this mean for you Trouble?

Trouble: Woof …I’m still rich bitch!
