Decades ago, he was on MTV Spring Break shows. I never would thought he would end up performing in Las Vegas
. Professionally, he has done quite well. Personally, it appears less so. I hope he gets whatever help he needs.

If you need 35 trunks of props to be funny, you’re not a comedian. He’s lucky he achieved the level fame he got.

He looks like a troll that lives under a bridge.

What a coincidence, his act committed suicide 30 years ago.
