Yes, Winters was way ahead of his time, very witty guy.

Sorry to hear that we've lost another pioneer of modern comedy.  Winters is acknowledged as the father of improvisation with good reason.  He was incredibly quick witted and could use almost any prop to create a hilarious character on the spot.  Any comedian worth his/her salt will agree that he was one of a kind and influenced them all to one extent or the other.  May you rest in peace, Jonathan, and thanks for the laughs.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord...
