George carlin

George carlin comes up from time to time. Seems no mater what you think about bigfoot, aliens or trump you have respect for carlin.
So, I watch his stand up and interviews. Today I found one I'd never seen. Some stand up comedians really are our modern day philosophers. In this interview carlin even gives a great list of them. And at min 10:38 he says ," Every person you look at you can really see the universe in their eyes, if your really looking." If he was still around just imagine what he would have to say about life in america today.

Do you love him?
Do you hate him?
Do you maybe not even know him?

Love Him!!

Inspirational!!

The American Okie Doke is a favorite:

Love Georgie.
Some folks get hung-up on foul language.
The message is beyond the language. Don't get hung-up on lower level stuff.

Also like: Doug Stanhope; Chris Rock' Bill Burr; Richard Pryor...etc...
But Carlin was special.

Carlin was one of the best ever. Occasionally when reading about some bat chit crazy topic, I'll think " what would Carlin have to say about this". He's very missed.
