Loved the bit about replacing the word "kill" with the word "f***".


"We're gonna f*** you sheriff, but we're gonna f*** you reeeaaal slow!"



That was the very first Carlin bit I ever heard.
Off the "Class Clown" Album

been a fan ever since
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

The best thing about carlin was that he did not exclude himself from his satire.   He knew that he had done/did dumb things in his life too.

Just read that SNL will rerun the series premier episode hosted by Carlin this Saturday.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

RIP, he was a true great... he just got so sour and unfunny the last several years of his life he was hard to watch.
