Lenny Bruce passed away 43 years ago on Aug 3, 1966.  Every comedian performing today owes him an incalculable debt - without him, stand up comedy would not exist - certainly in the myriad, occasionally unconscionable forms that it does today. The clip shown here, much like Bruce's own life, is very brief, and includes a truncated version of one of his most famous observations.  
 
Thanks, Lenny.
