Greg Giraldo Dies

I am surprised a little bit, I was far from a big fan, I enjoyed him on a few things such as Roast of celebrities. Also apparently he was once a lawyer and graduated from Harvard Law School.

Not a hugely famous person, kind of a B/C level comedian who did a lot of comedy central related stuff.
 
Oh man I really liked this guy's routine.

One that never fails to get me laughing is he gets into this 45 minute Text chat with his friend trying to organize the two of them getting together and he just wishes there was some technology that would let him just talk to his friend because they could organize this in a few minutes. I loved that bit so much.
 
Why the fuck does this guy die while Carlos Mencia roams the Earth, still being a horrible comic?

Goddamn drugs.
This looks like it was an accidental OD on prescription drugs. I wonder if he was drinking grapefruit juice - that can cause a lot of absorption with certain drugs.

I'd say Chris Farley is the exception to that rule, but his replacements have been so much worse.

Lewis Black and Greg were good friends. I just listened to an interview with Lewis on my local radio show and he repeated the pricks line.
