It was very sad for me to wake up this morning and hear the news. George Carlin is dead. He was my generation's comedian.

It was very sad for me to wake up this morning and hear the news. George Carlin is dead. He was my generation's comedian. Before Steve Martin and after Lenny Bruce, George Carlin was there. Another local connection was that he was busted for disorderly conduct in Milwaukee for expressing his "Seven Words" on stage and was hauled off to the poky. Not one of our city's better days. Just check out youtube to see why he will be missed.
