    Anyone else watch Larry King last night? He did a tribute to Carlin. Carlin's daughter talked about how much he loved people. Jokes can just be jokes, but I knew he cared about people some how. And some of his jokes were the funniest things I've ever heard.

        I did. In fact, it was the first Larry King show I was able to sit all the way through. Jerry Seinfeld made some very insightful observations on Carlin's humor.

            I dunno. I watched it on T.V. But I'm sure it's somewhere on U-Tube by now.

              This weekend's SNL is the very first one, the one Carlin hosted BTW.

                Just watched a 1978 Performance by Carlin done in Phoenix (one of the HBO's had it). It was really eerie. He did like 20 minutes on death.

                  Ok, ok...George Carlin gets to the pearly gates and meets Saint Peter. Carlin says, "Hey Saint Peter, how the **** ya doin man?"

                  Saint Peter says, "now George, there's seven words you can't say in heaven..."

                    Only in the sense that he died before he could get the actual award, he had been selected 11 days prior to his death.

                    ACK!

                        Thanks Frosty, Carlin is perhaps the best British comedian ever.

                              They ran about 7 of his specials last night we just sat there for about 4 hours laughing our a$$ off. I had forgotten just how funny he was.

                              And OMG did I love the one he did about cat's and dogs and when he talked about small dogs, we have a chaaa hoooahh hoooah and he nailed Gizmo's behavior to a T.
