Well, I hope you do write something about it, because it would be great for people to see and to get an understanding of him, because I think a lot of young people, particularly today, just think of him as an author.

Just think of him as the guy who wrote Tom Sawyer.

That's amazing.

Amazing.

I know Bernie.

One of the greats, and I still maintain that for like a period of two years, two or three years, he was the most profound and revolutionary stand-up comic ever.

He came out of nowhere.

He was so different than anybody else.

You know, I was introduced to Kinison by a girl that I work with.

I was working at a gym called the Boston Athletic Club in South Boston.

And it was a girl that worked at the front counter who was hilarious.

She was a volleyball player.

Really hilarious girl.

And she told me about Kinison and reenacted one of his bits in the parking lot of the club.

Told me what she saw on TV about.

He had that bit about homosexual necrophiliacs paying money.

She's on her stomach laying on the.

She was so funny.

She was on her stomach in the parking lot going, oh, oh.

Life keeps fucking in the ass even after you're dead.
