A date took me to see him in 1985. One of my weirder dates. Honestly, I think I fell asleep.
RIP GC
RIP 
I first heard Carlin when I was 6 years old, I snuck into my big brother's room and put the album on (YES>>>VINYL). I distinctly remember getting into trouble shortly there after because I chose to say the 7 words you cannot say!!!!
I did annoy the family with the raisin song though.
As I grew up, I learned to appreciate Carlin's more intelligent humor, it is somewhat responsible for what I am today.

Sure brings back lots of memories! Reminded me of my father...

I always wondered if his later bitterness came from losing his wife in '97.
Or maybe he just naturally grew a bit more curmudgeonly--I myself am proof that this can happen after 50.
With Bo Diddly and Tim Russert lost to us so recently, and now Carlin, that makes 3, and I hope we will not lose any more American treasures for at least awhile.

One of my favorites.
I'll be watching the Bill and Ted movies tonight in his honor.

Larry King did a tribute show about him tonight. I think its on again now. Always repeats at 12am. Ahhh well. His daughter (& only child) spoke via phone and said he had cardiovascular disease. She's a spittin' image of him. But she wasn't broke down or anything like anyone of us would be if our daddy just died yesterday....
