The funniest guy only funny people have heard of.

Harold Ramis just passed away.

When you talk about Caddyshack, most people remember Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, and Chevy Chase.

When you talk about Stripes most people recite lines by Bill Murray, John Candy. and "Lighten up Francis."

When you talk about Animal House most people think of John Belushi, well mostly John Belushi.

When Ghostbusters comes up, mostly we quote Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, and Rick Moranis.

Harold Ramis wrote all those movies to name just a few. His imdb is here.

Once you see the face you'll recognize Russell Ziskey from Stripes, and Dr. Egon Spengler from Ghostbusters. Now, you could say Bill Murray could say anything, and it'd be funny, and that's probably true. People that follow, and appreciate comedy know how funny, and talented Harold Ramis was. Find another writer with that many laughs on his filmography, and tv credits. it's not hyperbole to say he was prolific in his involvement in the world of sketch, tv, and film comedy since the 70s.

I'm bummed today, because the world is a little less funny till the next Harold Ramis comes along. So when you say:

"It's in the hole!" or
"I'm a zit. Get it!?" or
"He slimed Venkman." "Great. Save me some."

Remember those are the words of Ramis brought to life by people commonly called geniuses. Harold Ramis; comedy genius. Rest in Peace
