In Memory of Richard Pryor

Yesterday one of the greatest stand-up comedians of all time passed away. Richard Pryor, whose talent and ability is an inspiration to all aspiring comedians, died of a heart attack at age 65. I can still remember the first time I saw one of his specials, against my parents wishes which made it even cooler. I think back to how Pryor would strut back and forth on stage and speak in such a plain and confidant way that demanded attention. I also remember laughing so hard I was nearly in tears. I still listen to his routines and am in awe of how brilliant and grounbreaking he was. I speak for everyone here at Horrible People by saying Richard will be greatly missed.
