Home'scool Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 He was a well-known comedian and even had a few parts in some movies. I knew him as a good friend from college. He was a great guy. Extraordinarily funny. He could make anything and everything a comedy routine at all times. It was like hanging out with Robin Williams. We all used to have dinner in the cafeteria together and I used to beg him not to make jokes because I couldn't laugh and eat at the same time. He would make me laugh so hard my stomach would hurt. I know back then he struggled with his demons, as a lot of comedians do, and I know that recently he had some health issues. I hope he has found peace. The world will have less laughter without him. If you are not familiar with his work you should google "Chinese buffett", "France vs. Italy", or "I don't do ups"http://youtu.be/TdwuiyO7hOUhttp://youtu.be/0q6Gc23ZtPAhttp://youtu.be/wpMkRIXhLH0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xuzi Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 He was DH and I's favorite comedian. He was so awesomely funny. He'll be sorely missed. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home'scool Posted April 7, 2014 Author Share Posted April 7, 2014 I read that he fired an opening act because the comedy was "not clean". That was just like John. He could be funny without be crude or raunchy. He was just a great guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChocolateReignRemix Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 He was an impressive performer. I told DH of his passing last night and he shook his head and sadly said "Oh nay nay." Summed it up well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
