Most of you would know him Comedy Central's Roasts. He was damn funny.
Accidental overdose on prescription meds. When will people learn?

Yeah...this sucks. He was brutal at roasts, but people loved him for it! He was slowly catch the "success" wave and people were taking more note of this guy. And just like that...DEAD!

Also...Bob Schimmel died a few weeks back from injuries he sustained in a car accident. Bob's daughter was driving, swerved to miss an oncoming car, rolled the car, and Bob took the brunt of the accident. No one else was seriously hurt.

There was a famous comedian on 105.9 the X the other morning (his name escapes me at the moment), and right out of the gate he was making jokes about it.
Some would say that's cruel, but I bet Greg would have wanted that...it's what comedy is all about. You either understand it for what it is, or you don't.
