I just watched a few of his routines on YouTube. Some good stuff there.

Rest easily, Mort.

Wow, he went way, way back! When a movie about Werner von Braun, the world's most notorious German rocket scientist, came out in 1960 entitled "I Aim for the Stars," Sahl got big laughs (and stirred a bit of controversy) suggesting that it should be subtitled, "But Sometimes I Hit London."

RIP
