I am very saddened by this news. I first read this thread last night before i went to bed. I ran into the living room and told my roommate and one of my best friends. We are all big Mitch fans, and we just kinda sat there and were like 'uhh this sucks'.
But now when i just went to his website. It was updated this morning with this:

Weird, update it at 4.01 and not even mention this. Then again if it was a prank, he would definately have something posted on his website, atleast i would. Who knows. Its sad though. He was a very very funny man.
