So sad another great comic kills himself from drugs. I almost expect the great ones not to live past 45. Mitch was one of the greats!!

RIP Mitch.

“I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammable and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit.”

“I think fooseball is a combination of soccer and shish kabobs.”

“Last week I helped my friend stay put. It's a lot easier than helping someone move. I just went over to his house and made sure that he did not start to load his sh*t into a truck.”

“I was walking down the street with my friend and he said I hear music. As though there's any other way to take it in. You're not special. That's how I receive it too...I tried to taste it, but it did not work...”

"I like vending machines, because snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at the store oftentimes I will drop it, so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential."

"I like to play blackjack. I'm not addicted to gambling. I'm addicted to sitting in a semi-circle."

He was really good at the one liner, a lot like Dangerfield.

Sad. And I agree he was a great comic.

Ledzep, google some videos. His style was very unique.

He was a really funny guy, great delivery and style. It's a shame it was an OD, especially since it was said he was not doing those things anymore...

nredman · Dec 31, 2005, 07:45 AM

didn't everyone pretty much think he OD'd from the beginning?

It was said he had a heart attack since he had a heart defect.

that's what I thought.

I saw him live twice. Genius.

I thought that too... Pretty easy conclusion to jump to though. He was great, I remember going on a road trip with a bunch of college kids. I popped open the sidekick and went to his page, we read those one liners for hours and cracked up. He was great.

The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how much you play, you'll never be as good as a wall. I played a wall once, they're f'ing relentless.

"I like cinnamon rolls, but I don't always have time to make a pan. That's why I wish they would sell cinnamon roll incense. After all, I'd rather light a stick and have my roommate wake up with false hopes."

And you can actuallly buy the cinnamon roll incense!
