Last night George Carlin died, aged 71.


I never had a chance to se him live and allways made plans for it.
Now it's too late.


RIP George.

Saw this on the news this morning, very sad. I'd rank him up there with Richard Pryor as a ground breaking comedian...

Well, I had the privilege to see him live once when I was in college. He actually came to the campus and did a show. He was the first well-known comedian I ever saw live. Needless to say it was a great show, I laughed so hard that I almost pee in my pant.

I was shocked and sad when I heard the news this morning. But, that's life. RIP George.

Some of my favorites:

The ten commandments
Airline announcements
Baseball & Football

There is so much stuff...

I never heard anything of him I didn't laughed about.

Iceman...you've got me covered! Love those favorites of yours. I'd have to add the one about religion to the Ten Commandments:

Words. The guy was a word archaeologist. He would dig it up, hold it close and inspect it, and wonder what is was used for. Freakin' brilliant.

And don't forget the 7 dirty words ....
