Geroge Carlin Dead at 71

It's just a sad day. Last night my leader, George Carlin, passed  away of heart failure.


At 71 years, he was no Spring Chicken. And with a history of heart problems, one would think this not too unexpected.


From his somewhat cheesy impersonations in the late 50's to his 7 Dirty Words to cocaine binges to becoming a very insightful and brilliant political observer, George was true to one person and only one; himself. By doing so, he was true to his legions of fans as well. He was unfalteringly consistent.


This is rambling, and I know it. Waking to this news this morning was crushing. Crushing. It is not a good day.


George, I know that right now you are "down there, looking up at us".


Simon says go fuck yourself.

Sadness. I saw his latest special on HBO or Showtime, whatever, for the 3rd time the other night. With so many hacks and tards in standup these days this is truly the end of an era.
