Another one of my heroes is gone...

George Carlin Dead At 71

"'Older' sounds a little better than 'old,' doesn't it? Sounds like it might even last a little longer. I'm getting old. And it's OK. Because thanks to our fear of death in this country I won't have to die. I'll 'pass away.' Or I'll 'expire,' like a magazine subscription. If it happens in the hospital they'll call it a 'terminal episode.' The insurance company will refer to it as 'negative patient care outcome.' And if it's the result of malpractice they'll say it was a 'therapeutic misadventure.'"

I was fortunate enough to catch Carlin's show in March 2004. Another great one gone. RIP George.

I was lucky enough to see him 3 times in concert over the years. Laughed my ass off many times due to his comedy.

He'll be missed.

He was great as the bishop in Dogma. I loved watching his old specials on HBO.

RIP George.

One of the things I loved about George Carlin:
