OH SHIT! This is really bad news. I loved this guy. Thought he'd died a decade ago. He was a wacky funny type of comedian. I think Robin Willams modeled himself after this guy.

There was a rumor that one time he went to answer the door, on the Soupy Sales show i.e., there was a naked woman standing there. They pulled all kinds of tricks to get his on camera reactions. I heard that when I was a kid and thought it was great.
