Not really comedy, but we lost one of the greatest comedians ever, the one and only Ed McMahon. For those who don't know of Ed McMahon, he was Johnny Carson's sidekick on The Tonight Show (Carson beats the hell out of both Leno and Conan). RIP Ed.
"HIYO!"

Still waiting on my $10million that publishing clearing house said i won... those commercials where McMahon and Dick Clark would show up at someone's house were hilarious...

haha yeah, those were classic.
By the way do you have any influences in the comedy world? Surely you got your jokes from someone. Jerry Lewis? Johnny Carson?

I love Chris Rock. Jerry Lewis is hilarious. I don't remember Carson that much. There are so many comics that I love. Dangerfield was a riot. Met him a few times. Great person. Pops and I actually went to his funeral.

Oh yeah, Chris Rock is the man. Steve Martin is funny too.

And I'm really good friend with Chris Tucker (the Chris Rock knockoff from Rush Hour)

I must say the funniest stand up comic back in the day was Eddie Murphy! His Delirious video was sooo funny! I still crack up when I see that one!
