Carlin


Wow. If there was ever a comedian who had a lasting effect on me - it has to be George Carlin.
I mean, there have been others that I have loved, that have made me laugh with the deepest sincerity, but here is the man who taught me sarcasm - a skill without which I would never have made it through my thirty-odd years.

I will miss him.

"Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity."

"Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist."

George Carlin 1937-2008
