Richard Pryor has died.

The on-line news services are reporting that Richard Pryor has passed. That man was a genius, I have thoroughly enjoyed his comedy and I am very sad at his passing.

R.I.P. Mr Pryor.

"Clean Gene" McCarthy (Sen. Eugene) also died today.
One of the last democRats to have my respect (the modern dems would be well advised to re-examine his thoughts).

I've said many times that Vietnam won't be finished until our generation is all dead and buried. That war is as much a part of American politics today as it was in 1968. Particularly the politics of the dems.

Yep, sad news, the man has suffered enormously but kept fighting.

That is sad news, but no one can ever say Richard Pryor didn't lead a full life. He was one hell of a talented and funny guy. R.I.P.

I heard about his passing sunday morning. My best memory of him was back in the 70's when my parents played his comedy albums, we were thrown out of the living room. His albums were forbidden which made us want to listen to it more. So when the cat is away, the mice would play. Anyhow Richard may you rest in peace.
