Fuck, I started missing Mr Winters at about 1pm today and I better get used to it because I’m likely to miss him forever. But, Michael McKean said on Twitter today “The great Jonathan Winters did all he could with this reality… Next!” He really is irreplaceable and such a poignant note for a eulogy. This man took his consciousness to every limit and created lasting imagined impressions for coming generations. Entire worlds were built from his words and surreal commentary solely existed through his artwork.
I love Jonathan Winters as a comedian, as an artist, as an Ohioan. Forever an inspiration. It’s really too bad this man who was supposed to live an eternity died because now I have absolutely no hope to afford any of his paintings.
Welp, didn’t see Dave Foley last night. Apparently he’s sick and cancelled the whole weekend. So it was a great night for local comics and a guy whose name I forget (I’m so bad with names). He gave everyone candy. As funny as it was and as excellently as the club handled it, I’m still sorely disappointed. And pissed at myself for not knowing everyone’s names that filled in.
I hope Dave isn’t too ill. The lady at the box office made it sound terrible. Probably so we wouldn’t riot hahaha.
Come to Cleveland and get sick! We do have a lot of hospitals…
