I also love his wordplay jokes, and meta-jokes--jokes that play with the concept of jokes. "I used to do drugs. I still do drugs, but I used to do them too." I mean, that's some funny shit!


great points, man. he really did seem like such a genuinely sweet guy, on and off the stage. it's a shame not only because the comedy world lost such a truly unique and hilarious voice, but because the bottom line is he was just a good guy that was taken from the world far too early.
