George Carlin R.I.P.

Died of heart failure Sunday 06/22/2008. He was 71.  :'(



George Carlin was my favorite comedian. As someone once told me, he's a good comedian because he doesn't laugh at his own jokes. He'd say something histerically funny and yet keep a serious face at the same time making it all the funnier. Never losing character. And he wasn't afraid to tell things for what they where. I'm gonna miss him.

I was just going to post about this.  Also one of my all time favorites.  I had no idea he had heart problems.  This truly saddens me.

I saw this this morning too :(

I actually just saw his latest HBO special a few days ago and laughed ---my bottom--- off.  He's easily my favorite comedian as well, and he'll definitely be missed.

RIP.  :'(

Jdurg:
It completely caught me off guard when I heard of his passing.  Yet another icon of my childhood who has passed away.  I just don't know what to say now.  It truly is sad, but now there are a lot of souls up in heaven laughing uncontrollably for an eternity!   :D

The personification of the term "comic genius"

Though I disagreed with his views on politics and religion (and this isn't the board to get into THAT discussion), he was a brilliant man with a razor-sharp wit.

He will be missed.
