I really liked those quotes of his.  Grin I've often wondered if he is so brooding in real life.

I always got a laugh from one of his lines: "I hate it when my foot falls asleep during the day. That means it will be up all night."

His comments during the interview with Johnny Carson were as funny as his standup.

"Women, can't live with them, can't shoot them"...

Good stuff, love his quotes.  Falls under the, Things that make you go, Hmmm? category.  Ponderous thoughts to be ponderously pondered.   cooldude

He is good,
But watching that brought back great memories of the Johnny Carson Show, in my opinion the best comedy show ever!

I agree, I tried watching the newer ones.
Just not my thing, I guess I'm getting old!


One I remember from Steven Wright (probably gotta be 50-60 to get it);

" I couldn't find my sock, so I called Information (we all remember information, right?),
she said it was behind the couch...


And it was"
