"Wow, Ed, am I Impressed. I realized 20 minutes into your set that you not only don't use any 4 letter words, but you had the crowd in the palm of your hand"

"Special Ed has one of those charismatic personalities that draws people to him, and his whit tops it all off...Although his stature is small, his talent is large, and not only does he write his own jokes, he also plays guitar and writes his own lyrics to old tunes such as "Gilligan's Island" ... He tells the audience right away to hop on the "Short Bus" and go for a ride with him."
- Jill Ridenour, The New Perspective, Waukesha, WI

"He's just Ed to me."
