George Carlin
George Carlin for nearly three decades (1977 to 2005) has been provoking, challenging, and questioning just about everything. One of the funniest and most incredibly intelligent man out there....he'll be missed.
I picked a few pieces from his website that made me laugh, http://www.georgecarlin.com/.
I wish I could say more, but I think he says it best himself so check out his website and any of the cable specials when you can-you won't be dissapointed
WHEN WILL JESUS BRING THE PORKCHOPS?
George Carlin spends a lot of time pondering the universe. For example, he worries about the gloves that deli sandwich makers now use. Where have they been and who wants latex on his sandwich? He wonders, too, about the PC police who refer to ugly people as "people with severe appearance deficits." And why do they lock the public bathrooms at gas stations? Are they afraid that someone will clean them? In When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, Carlin probes life's deeper mysteries and emerges with many answers and very dirty hands.
NAPALM & SILLY PUTTY
In the expression "topsy-turvy," what exactly is meant by "turvy"? George Carlin asks many more nonsensical questions like that one in the 256 pages of this new hardcover collection of mockery. If you've read his first book, Braindroppings (and if you haven't, buy it immediately) you're going to devour this new collection of Carlin-isms.

Carlin was the best. My favorite comedian ever. My dad and I got to see him a few years back at Pala casino out by Bonsall. He did like thirty minutes of suicide jokes lmao. I think his style rubbed off on me a bit as you may have saw in my stupid keywords post. Safe to say though is I'm no Carlin man was that guy hilarious. Rip George. I love when will jesus bring the pork chops and napalm and silly putty.
He will be missed. The best comedians out there would all agree that he was in some way, shape, or form, and inspiration to them.
Rip George Carlin.
A true icon. I agree wholeheartedly with Tim, Carlin was the best. His comedy was cerebral and face value at the same time. Carlin had true creative license with his material. He could say anything about anything and wouldn't be held to task for it because nothing was sacred to the sharp edge of his outlook on the universe. He will be truly missed. His kind of brilliance is hard to replace. =0)
I don't know why I was so shocked that he had passed away. Maybe because such a funny vibrant personality seems like it will be here forever. He was one of a kind and could really make me laugh.
Okay everyone...let's get small...I mean...reeaalllyy small.
I reccommend his book "Brain Droppings" as the best compilation of his work. Even though I've read it cover to cover, I still pick it up once in a while and surf thorugh it for a quick dose of humor.
