George Carlin died
 

Yesterday of heart failure at 71. His acidic commentary on life, religion and the human circus will be sorely missed. You may not have agreed with everything he said but he was a master at his craft.

7 words you can never say on television became household entertainment over the last 30 years.

RIP George and thanks for the luaghs and the thought provoking monologues!:claps:

I just heard this on the radio. George you were one FUNNY MUTHER #$@!ER ! I hope you got a place for all your STUFF wherever you are. Wow what a great one gone.

:crying:

" I try to sense where the "line" is, and then deliberately cross it"
Catch you later, George..

I went to see him live in Northampton about a month ago. I worried that at his age, doing what he did would seem out of sync. He was great and his age, his outfit (a sweat suit and sneakers) and his hunched over posture made the whole thing just that much more funny, interesting and over the top. So glad I went to see and hear him. So sorry he's gone. To bad.

I started listening to Carlin at an age where the last comic I should have been listening to was Carlin!

Regardless, this news really saddens me. He was truly a gifted comic that forged new ground and stood completely on his own.

I got to see him live many many times over the years and I think the greatest part of a live show was looking around when he said something really offensive. You could tell the people who came tothe show who had no idea what Carlin was all about.

I will miss him, making people laugh is truly a gift.

RIP George

We know him as George the great comedian, many of our kids know him as the narrator in Thomas the Tank engine

George, I will miss you. Thank you for shaping my love of the English language, and for some of the funniest S*%$ I ever heard!

Hippy dippy weather man.

The weather tonight will be Dark

Miss you George. Rip

it is a shame . a true master has passed on . I was a real fan and was going to go see him in Sept . guess I will have to wait till its my time now .

if it wasnt for George playing Mr Conductor I would have never made it through one episode .

I started listening to him years ago on his old HBO specials and loved his brand of humor. Then, when my son started watching Thomas the Tank Engine, I realized that he was the narrator. To me, it was pretty cool that someone considered so edgy would do something for kids. He'll be missed.

RIP George. A very talented man.

my personal favorite quote was something along this line

"I never F-ed a 10 but one night I had 5 two's.

EDIT: DAMN Adam u beat me to it LOL

The divorce game routine..............:rotflmao:

A sad start to the day.

Saving the Planet .... humor that makes you think ..

If you really want to see George at his best you gotta go way back to his early stuff. " Occupation Fool" and "Toledo Windowbox" Acouple of the best.
Slinger

Class Clown... Classic Comedy Album!


He was a brilliant guy, he will be missed...

NO one on the horizon like Goerge, RIP man, you were responsible for some of the best laughs I ever had!!

sad day...he was a funny guy...
I had a old friend die on Sunday as well...he was 70...a funny man as well
R.I.P George & Bob....

Sux's. Had a marathon on last nite on one of the cable channels. Laughed myself to sleep. RIP.

Last night's SNL was a replay of their very first, George Carlin was the host. He's gonna be missed..

When I was on vac. last week and someo0ne told me they said they hated him because of all the crude stuff he talked about. With all the salty language he used it is often missed that he was a very thought provoking mother(^*$&$%%(%ing guy. I have to say I agree with most of his observations.

the way i'll remember GEORGE
 

is from his role as mentor on BILL and Ted's adventure

his most memorable line of all...for me anyways
........in my humble opinion


is

be excellent to one another.
