Good Day to Cross a River is pretty funny all the way through, and he usually did well on the roasts...more so than others anyway.

was rushed to the hospital several days ago for an overdose on prescription pills...they are hinting that it wasn't a suicide attempt though..

yeah, "accidental overdose" is what I heard though I'm never sure what that means exactly.

Just heard this on the news. Seemed as though I saw him more in the limelight in the last couple years, but he gave a pretty good laugh before that. I used to confuse him with some actor I think, Jonathan Goldberg. Sorry he's gone.

He was brutally funny at the roasts. I think he would have laughed at Gilbert Gottfried's response to his death, "If Greg Giraldo is cremated, will that be the 'Greg Giraldo Roast'?"

Only HE can deliver a line like "Larry's whole act is a sham, like the Bible or the Holocaust" and make it sound insulting but harmless at the same time. (from the Larry the Cable Guy roast)
