Andy Kaufman was one of my favorite comics mostly because he was unconventional and different in the way he did his comedy. He tried to get the audience to join him in his world rather than trying to join the audience in their world. He was quirky, creative, and was always ready to surprise others. I liked his Elvis impressions and singing along with the Mighty Mouse song done on Saturday Night Live. He also lived on the edge with his ideas and didn’t care what other people thought. He seemed at times to be a troubled, tortured soul who wrestled women for the erotic charge and later wrestled men and got hurt. I liked his “stuff” and that is why he made my “Feng Shui Creativity Nine Favorite Comic Wall”…
