A sad story. Immensely talented--possibly the funniest comic I ever
heard. Followed the too-much-money-too-soon path common to celebrity
and fried his body while trying to fry his brain.

The ultimate irony was survinving that only to fall victim to a slow
acting debilitating disease.

Another candidate for the John Belushi memorial "you could have made
us laugh for years, but, n-o-o-o-o" award.
