MITCH HEDBERG - FAREWELL TO A FRIEND

So how's everyone doing? It's been my first post in a while, there's nothing really to talk about....Anywho, with the pope's death and the unfortunate death of Terry Schiavo(sp?), Mitch Hedberg's death was definately over-shawdowed.

Mitch, in my mind, was a comedic genious. Straight to the point, he was expected to be the next great comedian.

Don't get me wrong, the two previously mentioned death's have a lot more signifigance to the average person. However, Mitch brought comedy, smiles and laughter to millions of people all over the world. His humor was un-like any other's.

Here's a bit of his work...They're just short, 20 second clips.

Haha "I'd like to see a forklift lift a box of forks. It'd be so literal."

He was a hilarious comedian. Clearly well respected, as I've seen a thread about him in every other forum I post on.

Sorry to hear about his passing.

Holy hell, this is one of the funniest things I've ever heard:

"Wearing a turtleneck is like being strangled by a really weak guy. All day. Like if you wear a turtleneck and a backpack, it's like a weak midget trying to bring you down."

This was one funny guy.

Haha definately! If you go onto www.comedycentral.com there is so awesome videos of him under the Stand Up section.

They're pretty long too... About 2 minutes.
