I used to fall asleep to 'Live at the Met' every night for years. I still know large chucks of the routine by heart: 'Cocaine! Our little trick on the white man for what you did to us! You take our land we give you monkey for your back.' I had no idea, at the time, how a monkey on someone's back related to drugs but I thought it was funny all the same. 'Colonel Khadafi's Bomb in a Bucket - Come On Dowwwwn!' 'I'm hungry & I don't know why?'

Like every other comedian he had kids and decided he wanted to make movies for his kids and he consequently lost his edge ala Eddie Murphy. I suppose it's comedy's version of 'selling out;' all in same, how can you blame him though. I'd want my kids to be able to go see my movies as well. Maybe getting divorced (again) will bring back that anger we all loved.
