Inspired by the which comedians do you hate thread, how about the best stand-up comedians you like?

My list:

10) Rodney Dangerfield - He delievers faster than anyone.
9) Jim Carrey - It's so hard to find his stand-up stuff, especially considering he does a lot of physical comedy.
8) Denis Leary - Even though he always seems as if he's on something while doing stand-up, he's still funny.
7) Lewis Black - The best political comedian ever in my opinion. He can make a decent joke a great joke with his delievery.
6) Eddie Murphy - He was great, and showed great promise, but his career was cut short by that silly multi-million dollar movie thing.
5) Ron White - His stand-up sets sound very similar to Wisconsin life.
4) Dave Attell - One of the dirtiest comics out there, but he's still damn funny.
3) George Carlin - So funny for so long, he has to be in the top 3.
2) Richard Pryor - While he is great because he's able to make fun of himself, he's bumped out of the top spot by...
1) Carlos Mencia - The least politically correct comedian out there. I cannot remember a single joke of his I have not laughed at.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
