The good always die young. Saw him live once when he played Dublin about a year before he died. He was on his anti-smoking kick at that stage (too late obviously) which to be honest wasn’t half as funny as his pro-smoking rants. “Non-Smokers die………every day”.
Painful irony.
Excuse me whilst I giggle for a few minutes as I remember:
“Goat Boy”
“Kind of like going up to Jackie Onassis with a rifle pendant on, you know”
“Dinosaur fossils? God put those there to test our faith.”
And the one I think of most often when I encounter idiots:
“what you readin for?”
