Damn, now this just sucks.
Les Says: You got that right.

A bit more joy just faded from the world forever.
Les Says: Yes, it has. A world without Potty-Mouth just doesn’t seem right, somehow.

Sad, very sad.
Les Says: Yes, it is. I still don’t quite believe he’s gone - he was only *71*!! He should have had a lot of years left.

I was quite saddened when I heard this. George Carlin was one of my favourite comedians when I was in high school and university.
Les Says: I KNOW!! I’m having a hard time with this. I feel like I lost a good friend.

The amazing thing about George: he made us laugh at our own stupidity and his comedy was full of insight.
Les Says: I always found, when he went off on a tangent (especially about politics), that I’d forget he was supposed to be being funny - and then he’d throw out a zinger and floor me with laughter.
