Goodbye George, we will miss you.

I too am stunned, the world is one light bulb dimmer.

I heard this on the radio this morning, and was shocked. What a passing.

It truly is a sad day.

George Carlin - U R Legend

One of the best comedians ever I dare say.
Rest assured, ask for some Carlin and GSP will honor this old geezer and play it.

Heard this on my way to work this morning and was monumentally bummed.
