No Laughing Matter
By now everyone has heard the news of George Carlin’s exit and have dealt with it in their own way. The news hit me like a brick last week. I had just seen Carlin in October at the Fox Theatre. He was warming up material for his upcoming HBO Special. He looked old but no one there knew that in six months time he would no longer be writing new material for the next special. If you saw the special you’ll notice that he was a little morbid and it had me wondering all week if he knew this would be the last laugh. I really enjoyed Carlin’s work because he made you laugh and he made you think all in the same joke. He didn’t pull any punches and didn’t care if he offended his audience. As he told those of us in attendance back in October:
The audience doesn’t figure into my plans....I’m here for me, you’re here for me and no one’s here for you
Kevin Smith wrote a good article on Carlin for Newsweek. I suggest you read it if you’re a fan of either. George Carlin was one of my favorite Comedians and I’m glad that I got the chance to sit 4 seats away from him. Now who’s going to pick up where he left off?

I don’t really familiar with this but Essay Editing does. I think George Carlin’s is a very good on it.
I remember George Carlin’s famous quote “Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity”. His quotes are really meaningful, he is really great.
Love to read George Carlin quotes a lot. Most of the quotes are very meaningful and brilliant. I appreciate you for writing a segment about George Carlin. Thanks
