    I love Jim Breuer. I once wanted to order a DVD from the US with his stand-up, but because of shipping costs was unavailable due to the fact that I live in the Netherlands. He sent me the DVD for free with a personal note. Thanks again Jim.

    Jim did a meet-n-greet at my record store promoting his album (on Metal Blade records). He was so nice to everyone that came in. Told stories and was so personable. I had 4 tickets comp'd to his show to give away at the MNG but he gave me n my wife two tickets for ourselves. He also sent a msg to meet him after the show and he thanked me n bought me a beer. Just insanely nice. Thanks Jim. Fuckin class act.

      I met Dave Foley once on the set of Kids in the Halls "Death Comes to Town". My son was the baby that played baby Ricky/ the test baby in the abortion clinic. Dave made a special point to personally come meet us in the trailer, make sure everything was great and the crew was treating us well, and then held my son for about 2 hours as they set up just to get to know him. It seriously doesn't get nicer than that dude.

Chevy Chase admitted they were all liberals using the show politically, actually trying to affect real-world outcomes in US elections. He mocked the nonsense obsession they had in destroying Sarah Palin, where the motives were obvious. These aren't nice people. This is also New York, so the scummy elitism is off the scale.
