Default Richard Pryor dead at 65
Taken from CNN.com:
"Groundbreaking Comedian Richard Pryor died Saturday of a heart attack, his wife told CNN. He was 65.

Pryor, who had been ill with multiple sclerosis, died at Encino Hospital near Los Angeles, at 7:58 a.m. PT. Jennifer Lee Pryor tried to revive him before paramedics arrived and took him to the hospital, she said."

Kinda been on the cards for a couple of years now, but still sucks.

Oh no! What a shame, Richard Pryor was such an amazing comedian and it's a real shame the way he ended up. RIP indeed.

A great loss. For a long time he was the funniest man on the planet.

RIP, man.

RIP.

I had an old video from the 80's i think of richard pryor, that my dad gave me, and its probably the funniest thing i've ever seen.

the sketch about the dog and the burglar had me in fits...."you can't leave...i want to play!"
