    :(

    I do have to say it's hard to believe he was only 90.
    He has seemed old (and apoplectic) as long as I can remember him -- which goes back to the early 1960s.

    His style was very influential on the comics of the '70s, '80s and beyond (not always in a good way) -- and he was, indubitably, very funny.

    Yeah, let that be a lesson to him!

    Being reverent about his death would be totally irreverent in his mind. IMHO

    RIP Mr. SomePartOfAllOfUs
