Sad Day
RIP George Carlin
Man, where do I even start with what an impact Carlin had on my life?
Bill and Ted, probably, was my first memory of him, or maybe Thomas the Tank Engine.
But I really Came To Know Him in 1998, driving around Lees Summit, smoking pot with my buddy Brennan and he put in the tape of 'Parental Advisory: Explicit Lyrics' and I just died. It was like, this guy GETS IT. And jesus fuck, he's funny!
I got to see him live in concert in 2003 with my buddy Gary, which I feel very, very lucky about. It came off as very personal, like he was just that guy at the party who had all of the entertaining shit to say and everybody was laughing at what he said.
I'll miss him. But, in his honor, I'd like to say a few more words in his memory. Seven words, in fact.
Shit.
Piss.
Fuck.
Cunt.
Cocksucker.
Motherfucker.
Tits.
We'll miss ya, ya dirty bastard.
