RIP David Brenner

AP Lynn Elber wrote:LOS ANGELES -- David Brenner, the gangly, toothy-grinned "Tonight Show" favorite whose brand of observational comedy became a staple for other standup comedians, including Jerry Seinfeld and Paul Reiser, died Saturday. He was 78.

Brenner, who had been fighting cancer, died peacefully at his home in New York City with his family at his side, according to Jeff Abraham, his friend and publicist.

Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he'll never be able to drive in New Jersey.

Is this the same David Brenner who died in March of 2014?

There was a nice obit in the Temple alumni magazine at the time.

As I mentioned when he actually died, I saw David Brenner perform three months before his death. I also saw Don Rickles last year. I won't go see any other elderly Jewish comedians with ties to Philadelphia.

You could still go, just make sure that you wear a long, hooded cloak and carry a sickle.
