Default RIP Gilbert Gottfried

Just heard Gilbert passed away. Sounds like he had been battling an illness for some time

His cause of death was due to congenital condition, where his heart could generate a dangerously abnormal heart beat.
I had been a regular listener to his podcast for several years. I did notice they were replaying older episodes, which gave me reason to pause and be concerned.

Happily, there is nothing I can think of to play in tribute that would be within community standards.

Yeah on another chat group I am on, the first one someone posted was him reading 50 shades of grey. Frickin hilarious

I went to see him do standup twice, 30 years apart. Most of his act was the same both times and it was still hilarious.
