George Carlin Dies

As a die hard fan of bitter, sarcastic humor, I will miss Carlin. Perhaps his greatest achievement was living 71 years with a heart full of cocaine, but I digress. He will be missed, Carlin and Pryor are the first two names you can put on any great comic list IMO.

What about Complaints and Grievances? The one he did in 2001. It was originally gonna be called "I Kinda Like It When A Lot of People Die" but then 9-11 happened. I guess even George Carlin has limits. :lol:

Worst Carlin-death headline

 

seriously....that's all they could come up with??????

 

:unsure:

LOL. Whoever wrote that article obviously had no idea who George Carlin was. Not one reference to his life as a standup comedian. He probably heard his name mentioned, browsed through Carlins IMDB trivia page and then put together some bits of information.

lol that's kind of the equivalent of saying "Albert Einstein, co-creator of the Einstein refrigerator, dies at age 76"
