Yes it's sad. Comedian Mitch Hedberg died yesterday. They think it was an overdose but it hasn't been confirmed. Mitch was one of my favorite stand-up comedians. If you've never heard of him, go out and get his DVD/CD "All Together". Hilarious! Mitch was the ultimate stoners comedian.
WOW!! I was listening to the local alternative rock station while typing this and they played a clip of his stand-up and discussed his death.

"My apartment is infested with koala bears. It's the cutest infestation ever. Way better than cockroaches. When I turn on the light, a bunch of koala bears scatter, but I don't want them too. I'm like, "Hey... Hold on fellows... Let me hold one of you, and feed you a leaf." Koala bears are so cute, why do they have to be so far away from me. We need to ship a few over, so I can hold one, and pat it on its head." - MH

Mitch was hilarious, this is an unfortunate event.

"I went to the doctor the other day, but all he did was bite my neck. Don't ever go see Dr. Acula."
I managed to catch his stand-up show when he came to Columbus in February. Sad.

MY friend just introduced me to his work a few months ago. He was my favorite comedian :(

"What do sesame seeds grow into? I don't know; we never give them a chance."
"I like rice. Rice is good when you're hungry and you want to eat 2000 of something."
"The girl at the Doubletree front desk gave me her phone number: it's zero. I called her up today and said, 'Man! You sound older!!'"
"They say the recipe for Sprite is lemon and lime, but I've tried it at home; there's more to it than that."
"People always think I use drugs because I have long hair. People seem to associate long hair with drug use. I wish people associated long hair with something else, like an extreme longing for cake."
"If fish could scream, the ocean would be loud as s**t. You'd stick your head underwater and all you'd hear is fish screaming, "Aww, f**k!!"

That's my favorite one liner of his. I have a video of one of his performances somewhere, so funny.

Nor do I, it's sad though.

When I saw him in Columbus a few months ago, there were a few drunken idiots up in the balcony causing a scene. They had already heckled one of the opening acts off (and I think she was Mitch's wife). Anyhow, at some point they got so rambunctious that Mitch, laid back though he was, had had enough. "You know what, security, man, get those guys out of here. You're too f***ing loud, man. You know, maybe you guys really like me; that's not a good way to show it. Maybe you really dislike me. That's an excellent way to show it. But then why the hell are you here?"

That's awesome, I can't picture him losing his nerve.
