RIP George Carlin
The world is a better place because of <a href="http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/obituaries/articles/2008/06/23/george_carlin_comic_in_search_of_meaning/
">him</a>.
He will be missed.

Jesus. 71 years old - went into the hospital with chest pains in the morning and was dead by the afternoon.

Tragic. I kept telling myself I would go to one of his oft-book New England appearances, but never did. I love all the stand up specials he has done over the years.
He absolutely will be missed.
One of my faves was a routine that was something to the extent of a bunch of people waiting in line to get "on" a plane. Mr. Carlin is emphatic of how incorrect this phrase is: "FUCK YOU! I'm getting IN the plane."

wow - Film Threat can legally post complete HBO specials? Or will this be ceased and desisted in like the next three or four hours? Great link, Conor - thanks. (Glad I'm not at work today).
