You said it Mooshki - Some people should not be allowed to die. He had too many brains and too much too say. I keep thinking it must be a mistake. I have never been so stricken by the loss of a celebrity, but he is one of the first (besides my parents) who taught me to THINK and not just take what is handed to me. I am going to miss that fucker.
This man THOUGHT funny - some have to have written "stuff" in front of them to be funny....saw him in an elevator in Tacoma, WA. quite a few years back...had a 4 floor non-sequitor conversation with him.... also saw him in Tahoe with Leon Redbone......RIP, George....Thanks for leaving us with so much of your "stuff"
Not too long ago I had the privilege of seeing him perform. It was brilliant, hilarious and wonderful. He was awesome and he'll be missed by many, myself included...

ReplyDeleteI've been close to tears all morning. Worst. news. ever.
ReplyDeleteI won tickets to see him when I was in college--he was so funny in person...my eyes were tearing. So sad...
ReplyDeleteRIP George Carlin
He hadn't been in the best of health, so I guess I knew it would be coming.
ReplyDeleteStill sad, though.
Here are some MP3s that someone posted. I particularly like the History of F.
I miss this motherfucker already.
ReplyDeleteSome people just shouldn't be allowed to die.
ReplyDeleteI like to think that George, Lenny and Richard are now doing the triple headliner show of my dreams.
ReplyDeleteI am so bummed and have been teary eyed all morning.
I called someone a twat in his honor, though.

ReplyDeleteThe bastard had the audacity to go and die before I had a chance to see him in concert.
ReplyDeleteRIP Mr. Carlin - you are missed :(
I saw him in concert in the early 90's. Funny mother fucker. I'm truly bummed over his death. A total legend. RIP George.

ReplyDeleteDepressing. The world sucks enough without losing touchstones like George Carlin. Very depressing...

His heart did him in and now mine hurts something awful. Only Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor ever came close.
