Yeah, was a bit surprised to see this tonight. I know he had some complications from surgery, but it's pretty sad to see it end like this.

Even if he got it from no-one else... he'll always have my respect.

Not to be disrespectful or anything, but I have noticed that celebrity deaths come in threes. Give it another 5-7 days, another celeb won't make it.

Man, that sucks... I wasn't the biggest fan of his humor, but for some reason I liked the guy.

Although I wasn't a big fan of his "no respect" one-liner standup comedy, he was a huge influence in helping the careers of young unknown comics. He made a lot of careers. Plus, he made quite a few classic movies. Even lesser films like Ladybugs and Meet Wally Sparks were okay just by his presence.

Just found this out at work - this really sucks, I loved his comedy and thought he was a great guy, he'll be missed.

RIP
