RIP: Leslie Nielson at 84

Leslie Nielson passes away at age 84 from pneumonia complications.

Leslie Nielson's comedy will be sorely missed. I remember laughing like crazy in the movie theater at the hi-jinx in The Naked Gun. I had never run into comedy like that before.

Gentleman Leslie probably created havoc in his hospital room, one can only guess.

If Phil Donahue ever does SNL, an imitation of Leslie Nielson should be in the cards.

Robert Schimmel: With Lamont and Tonelli 01-08-2010

Robert Schimmel, the comedian, died recently in a car accident. I ran into him because people were posting his name on blog comments and feeling sad about his death. So I watch his performances online and they're pretty good. He got funnier over time.

Anyways, here's a hilarious interview with Lamont and Tonelli on 107.7 "The Bone" 5am-10am out in San Francisco, CA on 01-08-2010. Recorded by Baby Huey on his Huey Cam.

He dives right into his second divorce and makes fun of his not so great predicament. Very funny!

He seemed like a great guy. My condolences to his family.

Howard Zinn passes away at 87

TIME IS FLEETING

I heard it on the car radio and I was floored.

You always expect a person to be there. But it is only a limited and fleeting window of time and a window of opportunity that we get.

Today, the world loses one of the great ones, Howard Zinn.
