Ever read Rodney's autobiography, It's Not Easy Bein' Me? A buddy of mine who was coming up in the Bay Area comedy scene lent it to me. I never returned it. Let me know if you wanna borrow it.
Can't get enough. Rodney came from a broken home, got into comedy at a young age but quit when he was 28 ("To give you an idea how well I was doing at the time I quit, I was the only one who knew I quit."), felt he couldn't make it and went on to sell aluminum siding. In his forties he came back and made it happen. And the rest is history.
