Re: Your favorite comedian/enne
Great article about Bill Murray in the January 10 issue of Time.

I thought this quote from the article comparing his movie work to that of other comedians mentioned here was really on the mark.
Quote:
While Eddie Murphy toils in kids' movies, Steve Martin keeps remaking his remake of Father of the Bride and Robin Williams plays psychopaths as restitution for the saccharine sins of his Patch Adams period, Murray has not only remained funny but has transcended funny.
Re: Your favorite comedian/enne
And Lenny Bruce is probably the all time greatest.
If you can find his book "How to Talk Dirty, and Influence People", please read it.
It might just change your life.
