Hands down my favorite Stand-Up Comic, the guy who taught me how to swear, and maybe the best performer-technician with words ever.

I didn't know he was that old. For some reason I thought he was in his late 50's.

RIP, Mister Carlin.  You were one of the good ones, a true individual.  I even forgive you for 'Bill & Tedd's Excellent Adventure."

One of my all-time favorite Carlin routines was when he'd do the fake news broadcast. I especially liked the last bit...

"And on the lighter side of the news, here's a halloween prank that REALLY backfired...

It seems that 10 year old Danny O'Maira thought that it would be great fun to soap all the windows of the cars on his block. Danny had soaped 4 cars, and was starting on the 5th...not knowing that the owner of the 5th car, Carl Downing, was seated inside.

Carl Downing shot Danny 5 times in the head."
