Your top 3 comedians

I'm going to stay away from the classics, as most kind of go without saying, and are probably nothing new to anyone (I like'em as much as anyone else - how could you not). I'd rather list some more contemporaries who consistently impress me when I can catch my breath from laughing so hard.

Mitch Hedberg (RIP)
Lewis Black
Stephen Wright (OK, he's timeless, classic in his right... so I'll add one more)
Amy Sedaris (doesn't do standup, but love her humor)

Joe, you just knocked one of my top three! Steven Wright is one of the funniest comedians ever. DEFINITELY moves into my Number 2.

He's brilliant. Here are some more Stephen Wright quotes.

Jim Gaffigan is one that would be right up there for me as well.

I've got a list of super ones from France

What, no Coluche ? That guy was freakin' hilarious.

...and don't forget Jaques Tati's M. Hulot!!!
