George Carlin
George Denis Patrick Carlin (May 12, 1937 – June 22, 2008) was an American stand-up comedian. He was also an actor and author, and won four
Grammy Awards for his comedy albums.
Carlin was noted for his black humor as well as insights on politics, the English language, psychology, religion, and various taboo subjects. Carlin
and his "Seven Dirty Words" comedy routine were central to the 1978 U.S. Supreme Court case F.C.C. v. Pacifica Foundation, in which a narrow 5–4
decision by the justices affirmed the government's power to regulate indecent material on the public airwaves.
In the 1990s and 2000s, Carlin's stand-up routines focused on the flaws in modern-day America. He often took on contemporary political issues in the
United States and satirized the excesses of American culture.
Carlin was placed second on the Comedy Central cable television network list of the 100 greatest stand-up comedians, ahead of Lenny Bruce and behind
Richard Pryor.[21] He was a frequent performer and guest host on The Tonight Show during the three-decade Johnny Carson era, and was also the first
person to host Saturday Night Live.
He was one of the last good guys left in this world...
I really wish he was still around today.. But thats life.. WE are here one day, and the next day your gone..
Live and learn!! Have fun while you are here!! Cherish what you have.. And know that if you find love.. Cherish it with all your heart!!!
Its easy to take many things for granted here on this EARTH!!!
And its easy to think that we shift from one time line to the next!
When really sometimes life gets boring, and we need to make it seem more intense than it really is??
I see that happening alot on ATS.. something can happen that is somewhat normal..Such as a simple slip of the mind..
And we can turn it into something grand like this!!!
Not saying its a bad thing.. I enjoy it.. I really do..
But I think this is all a simple loss of memory, and when we get that part back.. We try out best to make something grand out of a simple thing like
forgetting about ones death..
Death is a very deep and personal thing.. We all deal with it in our own way..
But reguardless.. WE are all going to die...
So live it up while you got it kids!!!
Nothing lasts forever.. Not even the universe itself!!!

Peace !
