Awww, shit!
As David Letterman often said of him, there was no one funnier.
R.I.P.

Was it generally known that he had cancer? 'Cause I didn't know.

Very sad, one of the last comedians who simply didn't give a fuck. R.I.P.

There was a sort of sweetness that always came through, even when he was doing the angry stuff or the bitchy stuff. I really liked him - and he was VERY funny.
RIP Norm

Chevy Chase: "[Johnny Carson] was a wonderful guy, and we played poker a lot - with Johnny, Steve [Martin], other funny people... Carl Reiner..."
Norm [to sidekick Adam Eget]: "Imagine being a fly on the wall for that?!"
Chevy: "Yeah."
Norm: "You wouldn't understand anything, you'd just be worried about spiders an' shit."
(If you have Netflix, the Norm Macdonald Has A Show interview series is worth a gander. The whole Chevy one is actually really funny - at least, if you [ever] like[d] Chevy.)
