Dane Cook, Mitch Hedberg, Lewis Black, Jerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams.

I was so sad when I heard about Mitch Hedberg's passing. He was truly a genius.

Of course! how could I forget Jon Stewart?
And as long as I'm adding people to the list, I should add Stephen Colbert and Amy Sedaris.

Stephen Wright

He's not really a stand-up comedian, but to me there's nothing funnier than David Sedaris reading his own stories aloud.

Woody Allen's stand-up routines in the 1960's were sheer brilliance.

Rich Vos[s] is also pretty funny. He doesn't really have a 'schtik', well he does, but he picks on his qudience a lot. Love him.

gilbert gottfreid is a strange, irritating genius but i cannot take my eyes off him when he is on tv.
the first time i saw steve martin (he was on the tonight show strumming a banjo and making balloon animals) i laughed harder than i've ever laughed.
we used to hide the richard pryor albums from my mom.
as a child NOTHING was funnier than listening to bill cosby do THE CHICKEN HEART --nothing. we imitated it endlessly.
i love the art of the 60's political comics, and i have a special place in my heart for bob newhart.
