Eric Wettschreck Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Wow, that sucks. I liked him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambjm Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 He was the King of comedy in my book, and it is scary because I am only 10 years younger than him. Really makes me feel old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Almquist Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 That is really too bad cause I really liked his style of humor. I have heard a rumor that he had a place up on the north shore that he liked to visit when he wasn't on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandmannd Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I was sad to hear this on the news this morning. Was always one of my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windy City Walleye Hunter Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 A little piece of my youth just died yesterday. I feel a few years older now. I think I have every one of George's albumns. I might have to transfer them over to MP3's and listen to the 7 words you can't say on the air one more time. Rest well my funny friend!Windy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarsusd81 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 One of my favorite comedians of all time. There have been many nights were I have been up late unable to sleep. Hop on Youtube and watch a bunch of carlin videos, eases the mind and after a few I was able to finally hit the sack. He was comedy to me. RIP George.

smartguy Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Probably my favorite comedian, probably because he was funny AND made you think. He found a humurous, yet poignant way of speaking his indpendent mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Lee Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 George Carlin was the best comedian their was and ever will be. I have had the chance to see him live twice. R.I.P. George, no one will ever compare to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windy City Walleye Hunter Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 That was one of his first famous bits. The comparison of baseball and football is priceless, too funny, and the 7 forbidden words are historic and groundbreaking stuff. Maybe we all should take another listen for old times sake.Windy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbqhead Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 i did last night as my daughter never listened to him before,dont think she was all that impressed... i laughed! utubehas a lot of good stuff on carlin.randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lee Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I am already ahead of you... As soon as I heard the news I put on his latest album, Life is Worth Losing, in our room. In fact, over the last few months, I have got all of Carlin's albums in MP3 format, and have been playing them in my vehicle when rolling out on missions. I have gotten most of the Polish soldiers and a couple of my Albanian interpreters hooked on Carlin, they were saddened to hear of his passing also.

The_Lee Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 "And, of course, the funniest food: "kumquats". I don't even bring them home. I sit there laughing and they go to waste." - George CarlinI laugh every time I read or hear that one. R.I.P. George, the world will never be as funny now that you are gone.
