A cry for help? Rest in peace.
RIP Richard Jeni, Please see my Tagline.
Sad news . Rodney Dangerfield struggled with depression his whole life, but hung in there and talked about it publically, especially later in his life. He found some docs who helped him understand it was something he could control rather than it controlling him.

Rodney did a great job of turning lemons into lemonade.

THAT -- is my husband's and my favorite routine of his. It **IS** so funny because it's true!
"Chest size: Three-niner. Cup size: David... David... David..."
"David-David-David" is now a catchphrase between me and my hubby whenever we both spot a "well-endowed" woman ;-)
Richard Jeni was easily the funniest man I've ever seen. My wife and I made a point of seeing him every time he was in our area. He'd make you laugh so hard you'd start sweating.

He was funny. RIP. Prayers for his family.
Very sad. Brad Delp of Boston and now Jeni, who brought freshness to a mostly-mined-out genre.
Very sad news. I enjoyed his comedy. Prayers for family nd friends.
Anybody know where I can get a panda for the grill of my Navigator?
I can't believe it. I saw that special and it was very funny. I loved the way he defended America from the bashers saying "20 million illegal aliens can't be wrong!" RIP.
Dolphin saving, salmon eating hypocrites.
Yup, he was great. One of his classic comments about libs...
"Then they can't wait to strap your ass to back of a Toyota Hybrid, and drive you to the Berkeley campus and drop your carcass off in front of the Fidel Castro building for the Continuing Study of "Why America Sucks.""
LOL!
This really sucks - he was a great stand up comic.
Extremely sad, and not the only such case. Apparently, a lot of the most creative comedy writers and actors suffer from depression.
