One of my favorite comedians of all time was Mitch Hedberg. His simple but perfectly timed humor never failed to entertain.

I was lucky enough to see him once in Birmingham at the Stardome Comedy Club before I knew a lot about his style. He instantly became a guy that I seeked out.

I only bring up Mitch Hedberg because he died from multiple drug toxicity eight years ago today. If you haven't ever seen his stand up, take a few minutes and watch him perform. There's no question you'll be entertained.
