Great news today as I stumbled upon www.hedburgh.com, a fan site storing a whole lot of the late Mitch Hedberg clips and performances, freely downloadable as mp3. He's my favourite comedian by far (Lewis Black coming in second).

Here's a few quotes to get you going:

• My friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana, I said "No, but I want a regular banana later, so, Yeah."
• I wanna hang a map of the world in my house. Then I'm gonna put pins into all the locations that I've traveled to. But first, I'm gonna have to travel to the top two corners of the map so it won't fall down.
• I sit at my hotel at night, I think of something that's funny, then I go get a pen and I write it down. Or if the pen's too far away, I have to convince myself that what I thought of ain't funny.

If this rocks your boat, head over there, and go listen to it. Smiles guaranteed.

Oh, and a small clip over on Comedy Central. "Escalators can never break. They can only become stairs.":
