    Back in the 90’s I went to see Robert perform live at a comedy club with some friends. It was the one and only time in my life I seriously thought about asking the waitress to call me an ambulance! I had been laughing so hard, for so long, I wasn’t inhaling air at a normal rate. At least not enough to stay conscious! I remember becoming so dizzy I had to put my head between my knees just to keep from passing out. My limbs started going numb and my fingers lost all sensation.
    I am NOT exaggerating. Robert was THAT FUNNY! After the show, me and my friends just sat down outside and spent like what seemed forever just taking deep breaths in, slowly trying to heal our lungs. This was the one time in my life I thought laughter would put me in the hospital.
    Robert gave me one of the most incredible memories. Since then, whenever I think about him or that night I lose it and start laughing. R.I.P. brother, you are sourly missed.

      LOL 😆 He is funny I'm only hearing about him because I just read that Joe Rogans is married to one of his daughters. Joe and her were married back in 2003 before he was really famous. She must have a good sense of humor. Her names Jeesica Diezel but she is like super private. I wonder Joe and Robert's relationship

    Sure, Bob was a great comedian; the best I ever saw who never made it big. But he was also a wonderful person. In the early days of the internet, I went on his website to order two CDs of his old material. I already had his two officially released discs. Ecommerce was unreliable then and I couldn't check out, so I wrote the webmaster. Bob replied personally and sent me the CDs for free.

      OJ The Viking, they all had their own shtick. Rodney’s was PG rated I Get No Respect. Schimmel’s was sex. Bill Hicks was drugs and politics, sort of. Dice Clay did the different take on the fairy tale rhymes like Mary Had a Little Lamb (at least on this particular episode he did). They were a pretty diverse bunch.

    Saw this as a kid, when i was way too young...
    Stole the joke about the mountain lion and kitty litter.... used it all growing up
    Years later, his HBO special came on. Was laying in bed w my GF at the time, trying my damndest not to laugh so she didnt think I was a perv..... the mountain lion joke came on and i lost it.... THATS THE GUY!
    Had no idea who he was until then.
    Fast forward 10 years. Met him after a show at the improv. Told him the story. He thought it was cool as hell, told his wife about it.
    Dragged him into having a drink before he left. Made plans to get another next time he was in OC. Then he died....
    Still have a cool pic of that night.
    Always gonna be my favorite comedian. Guy was hilarious.
