Carlin was a one of a kind. He said what most were thinking. I didn't agree with most of what he said,yet he did manage to "ruffle" some feathers.

The joke-hold of death topic

It is a shame many of us wait for fame after our demise. George knew this, and judging by the timing of his last album, he knew his curtain was going to drop. :(

The jokes I find the most funny are the ones where he mocks platitudes. Lots of that here.
