Anyone here Like george carlin?

[High-Test]

I was just wondering because I think hes probably one of the funniest people alive, and I havent seen much of his stuff lately. do you know if he is still touring?

Yep, still touring and spouting off seven dirty words.

Which has probably become an understatment today. A local DJ (same station for 15 years) was suspended for saying "Nipple" on the air.

The moral majority has strangled the free speech of regular people.

George saw it coming years ago with his "syllables" rant. As we get older we add more syllables to our language even though it describes the same thing. Hence "Shell shock" is now called "Post traumatic Stress Syndrome"

Geaorge Carlin used to be an icon, a living avatar of freedom of speech and liberty in general. Unfortunately, after 30+ years of doing it, he's pretty tired now. Most of his material today doesn't hold a candle to the stuff he was doing 10 or 20 years ago. Sad but true. Overall, a worthy career, though.

I agree. Playing with your head is 30 times funnier than you are all diseased. Its too bad he doesn't do the faces anymore.

Yes, but he's rich, old and tired now. I think his age shows in his humor. Oh, you said tired.

I still love his "Todd, Tucker" routine, even though it's new.

He came to Ames not too long ago, which is bout half an hour from here. I saw him, he's still got it.

I liked his "The many uses of ****" or whatever it was called... Funny stuff.

He's truly a great comedian.
