5. Wow. That so sucks
There have been way too many comedians dying lately. This is the 3rd that I can recall in a year.

Mitch Hedberg
Richard Jeni
Sinbad now?

So sad when our clowns die.

I remember Sinbad from Star Search and I've love him since then.

Damn!

:cry:

30. really?
Wow. I still miss him so I guess it seems more recent. Did we ever found out how he died? I can't remember if it was an overdose as some assumed or I have this vague thought that he had some heart condition.

He was so clever and unique with such a silly sweetness.

All comedians do is just give. How many times have you found comfort in laughter? Sure there's gratification in acclaim and applause and all for them. But still I always see them as giving and especially with Jeni ir breaks my heart that he felt that way at the end. The brain can really play tricks with you.

:cry:

32. He had a heart condition, but drugs killed him.
He ODed: http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2005-12-27-hedberg-death_x.htm

Cocaine and heroin, the same combo that killed ... well, just about everyone else who has ODed. You'd think people would learn.

34. I'm glad I know now thanks.
Sadder now still that it could have been avoided. Damn. I just heard him on Howard Stern days before it too and he sounded so happy touring around with his wife. It was a dream life. You'd think people would learn but everybody always thinks they have it under control and it can't happen to them. Sad.

24. Yep. Looks like a Hoax.

SINBAD IS NOT DEAD!: Comedian is latest victim of death rumor spreading unchecked on the Internet.
Listen to Lee Bailey's conversation with Sinbad's brother.
(March 15, 2007)

"For those who have been inundated with e-mails about the supposed death of comedian Sinbad from a heart attack, just hit delete on those correspondences, as the news is 100 percent not true.

EUR's Lee Bailey has spoken with the comic’s brother and manager, Mark Adkins, who confirms that the former star of "A Different World" is alive and well (Listen to phone conversation below)..."

31. Those bastards
Now I got sad for no reason. I hope this stirs up some buzz about him. Where has he been anyway? Made me sad about Jeni all over too.

Those hackers are a bunch of doodyheads I tells ya!

12. Wow, he seemed like a nice person
Of course, I knew nothing about his personal life, but based on his appearances on TV, film, and talk shows, he seemed like a decent person trying to bring a little laughter into the world. I liked the film where he was mistaken as a dentist (I think it was a dentist). Was that Houseguest? It was light humor but entertaining. He certainly amounted to a lot more in life that what I amounted to and I salute him.

20. That's sad. He was pretty funny from what I remember.
I know he made a string of really lame movies like Jingle All The Way, but I remember his stand-up appearances on Leno were pretty funny.
