RIP George Carlin
Newsvine - Maher and Shandling honor George Carlin at service
Although his standup routines were often filled with four-letter words
— so many that early in his career Carlin was sometimes hauled off
stage and taken to jail — his dead-on ability to highlight the
absurdities of everyday life, and do so in such comical voices and
faces, made his humor come across as anything but harsh.
And, with that quote, I have violated AP’s copyright policy. Absurdities indeed. I cant think of a better tribute to such a brilliant, groundbreaking and truthtelling master of words and humor. Rest in peace, George.
