Thank you that was a very nice tape on Carlin. May he rest in peace.

I'll miss him Lacy. I saw him twice in concert. He always made me laugh. Often, when a joke hit close to home, I was laughing at myself. He'll be missed.

Thanks for the clip; I enjoyed being reminded of his intelligence as well as his humor.

Rudee said...

I agree Rose. I'm going to miss the Hippy Dippy Weatherman and the Seven Words!

Rudee, I'm not sure what my system is for buying yarn when I've said I wouldn't; it just sounded good at the time! :)

I was wondering about the reference in your comment.

This is sad news, George Carlin has always been one of my favourites, and you may see the occasional influence in my writing (although while my conversation is influenced by GC, my writing tends to be more influenced by Tom Robins).

And now you know wt. I see the influences. As far as TR, I only read Even Cowgirls Get the Blues. I don't know why I haven't read more.
