Just thought I'd post this here since this is something that really shocked me. To anyone watching "Comedy Central" this man should be a good acquaintance. He was the guy with the long blond hair and the 70's shades who specialised in mumbled one-liners and jokes about drugs. His most famous line was "I used to do drugs. I still do drugs. But I used to do drugs, too". Too bad his drug-jokes backfired unpleasantly since his death of heart-failure is said to be overdose related. He died last Wednesday at age 37.

I'm gonna miss the guy, he was one of the funniest comedians in America. But I'll still have Stephen Lynch.

Thanks to the human heart by which we live,
Thanks to its tenderness, its joys, and fears,
To me the meanest flower that blows can give
Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears.

I was thinking about starting a thread about this too. I am soooo bummed out about his death. The freaky thing is that I was supposed to see his act last week. He was going to perform at a local comedy club. My friend and I were on our way when the club called and said he missed his flight. And now a week later he is dead. Man, I am totally freaked.
