(in tribute :cry: ) To think he even put out that "I Ain't Dead Yet, Mother F***er!" thing I saw on Comedy Central. He survives running through the street on fire after drugs gone bad, but he's put down by...

    :grr: The link won't even tell me! It gives me some **** about membership; can someone find another link without restrictions?

    EDIT:

    The AOL link works, Fel. Oh, and to quote one of Richard's heros (Red Foxx): He was a JAMF.

    @DR - The Toy? That's the best movie nickname you could come up with? :shake:

    I remember seeing See No Evil Hear No Evil with my mother and thinking it was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. RIP Richard Pryor, at least you were heard before you died.

    Scares the hell out of me - that disease - my niece was diagnosed with it 2 years ago.

    I really loved his routine after his freebasing accident:

    "Fire is a great motivator."

    "And you people were cold. I heard the jokes. What's this?" (Takes out a book of matches, lights one, then makes a slight bobbing motion as he move it left to right in from of him) "Richard Pryor running down the street. Cold."
