He offered to pay my Grandfather (16 at the time) $10 to drive the car across town and park in a certain spot. My trepidatious grandfather inspected the car and then, to Guido's objection, opened the trunk. There was a body wrapped in a carpet. My Grand father refused the offer. It's what kept him out of the mob. My Great Uncle Guido went on to control all the farm labor unions in Central California. True story.

He said "Sistah, you here with whitey tonight? What, you get tired of taking a REAL dick or was you lookin' for a relationship with insurance?" I've never been happier to be picked on in my entire life! Sadly, this was edited out of the show .

No one comes close to them in terms of comedy on the big screen, however, Richard Pryor was the king of stand up.
