I don't know if anyone here follows stand up comedy but comedian Greg Giraldo passed away this morning.

Based on his character you would never guess that he was a Harvard Law grad and was a lawyer for a while. But his jokes were always witty and made me laugh.

RIP

This is definitely a huge loss to the world of comedy. I've been watching him for years and got the opportunity to see him perform a while back at the DC Improv. Needless to say dude had the whole room in stitches. It was during the last Presidential election and some jackass woman shouted at him to make a crack about McCain. He tore her apart which just showed how he wasn't out there with any kind of agenda, just loved to make people laugh. Greg you will be missed!

Geraldo at Large really wasn't my kind of show.
