This totally sucks. Standup comedy has lost the luster of the 70s and 80s, but this guy was one of the funniest modern comics around.

I'm trying to remember who he was on crank yankers. Was he that puppet with the long blonde hair?

I remember seeing his stand up on comedy central. I really liked him. I would liked to have seen him live.

He died! The end must be near!
