My Own Personal Pryor
It was May of 1981 and I was visiting some cousins who had HBO. I was recovering from a brief involvement with some people who used "being honest" as an excuse to belittle, abuse and manipulate. I started watching Richard Pryor Live in Concert and spent the next hour doubled over with laughter. His honesty helped me to recover from those other people. This is why he was one of the better things to come out of the Seventies.
