George Carlin Dies

What terrible news.
I just adored him.

A lot of you will find this offensive, but he speaks for millions of people (albeit in a far funnier and more obscene manner than they would express the same ideas). It’s his brilliant routine on why religion is a crock, why there is no God, and why he prays to Joe Pesci.
Joe bless you, George!!
Thanks especially for that night in some city hotel when I couldn’t sleep and found one of your HBO specials on TV and stayed up far too late laughing so hard I thought I’d surely lose an eyeball.
