He's criminally underrated. He's my #2 all-time behind Norm. Plus, my kid can watch his whole act. I think there's a "Hell" in his hospital bit, that's about as dirty as it gets.

Robin Williams - An Evening at the Met

When I was a frosh/soph in high school I would often get a ride to morning swim practice with one of the guys two years ahead of me.

This CD was on in his car all the time.

Add in Robin Williams at the Met and this is probably about as good a list as you will see.

Anyone notice reading thru all these replies that there is not one female comedian mentioned.
