You know who had a 30 year old set that was still awesome and hysterical to the very end? The Amazing Jonathan.

I got to see him in Vegas probably a few years before he died, he was doing shows in what amounted to a fancy conference room somewhere. I was the person called up to the stage, and even though I knew every single thing he was going to say and do, it was still just funny. I got to look him right in the eyes up close, and it was clear that he knew he was doing the same set he's done forever, in a conference room. and it seemed like we both knew that "WTF am I doing here?" added a whole other layer of funny to the whole thing.

Maybe I was reading too much into it. Maybe it was just the methamphetamine.
