In Loving Memory
George Carlin
May 12, 1937 - June 22, 2008
Thank you for the laughter, for making me think, for speaking up...
I'm going to miss you, motherfucker.

He will certainly be missed by me... We will always have "Dogma"...
Yeah.. I will take the pastoral game where you are safe at home...and you are not looking to kill someone in the stands.
He was one funny man who spoke for a generation
As the world evolved over the years, so did his ability to make fun of it.
He was sooooo awesome! His memory lives on!
Nice tribute.
He was such an intelligent man and a brilliant observationist..really one of the few Comedians to have maintained a degree of relevance over the past 4 decades.
He was brave, so very brave, to speak out...that's why I admired him.
The Last Angry Man...RIP
Buff: That's one of my all time favourite movies. I brought my copy of Braindroppings with me to read at lunch. I feel like I've lost a friend.
Vince: Give me the gridiron any day LOL
He spoke for so many more than a generation... and was still relevant and actual., and will remain so for a long time to come.
Leighann: He knew how to put things in perspective. He knew where the line of discomfort was and was already ready to cross it.
Crystalchick: He deserved much more and I'll revisit some of his work, but I woke up to this news and felt like I'd been punched in the gut. He will never be forgotten.
Donn: I had a feeling you'd also be touched by this loss.
He was indeed brave.

G. Carlin, Braindroppings
Charles: Many of us are. Thanks.
Coop: Indeed.
*hugs* i know how much he meant to you, honey. it is truly a great loss. bet he keeps St. Peter in stitches, though.
Coco: Thank you my friend... He was like family.
Two of my favorite Carlin bits!! Thanks for sharing.
He definitely touched a lot of lives, which is something we should all aspire to do. May he rest in peace. Hugs.
Some peeps should never wear thongs...this woman is one of them!
He was my favorite. I'm going to miss him quite a bit.
So many great bits over the years, from his HBO specials to his CD's to the movies. Fortunately he left us with all of those.
It's just so sad that there won't be any more.
HE ROCKED THE COMEDY SCENE. GREAT TRIBUTE TO HIM, ALL THE BLOG POSTS TODAY :(
AWESOME tribute...to and AWESOME man!
Thank you for this, Anndi!
And yes...he WILL be missed!
