Carlin

I just got the news in this very early hour of the morning that George Carlin died yesterday, on June 22. He went in to the hospital complaining of chest pains and died of heart failure. This really is one of the saddest days in a long time for comedy. The only other time I could remember being this upset was when Richard Pryor passed away. George Carlin really was one of the last great comedians we had left.

I'm assuming that everyone has at least heard of George Carlin, but if you haven't, do yourself a favor and just listen to some of his stuff they have up on youtube. He was like no other, and he will never be forgotten.

Joe bless you, George Carlin. Joe bless.
