I just found out this evening that Richard Pryor died. He was one of my favourite comedians.

When I was kid during the weekends there was this DC college radio station that used to play comedy albums late at night. Me and my older brother Carlos, would stay up and listen to the station. At the time he had insomnia. I do not recall what my excuse was. Anyway, the station would play things like Bob and Ray and the Fireside theatre. I do not recall if the Richard Pryor records they played were edited or not. Most likely, they were not.

Well, thats my Richard Pryor memories. Oh, I also liked his movies too!! I liked him in Stir Crazy and all those Bill Cosby movies.
