But if I were, that's how I'd be," Belzer once said."They write to all my paranoia and anti-establishment dissidence and conspiracy theories. So it's been a lot of fun for me. A dream, really."
"He made me laugh a billion times," his longtime friend and fellow stand-up Richard Lewis said Sunday on Twitter.
