There's a reason he's in my sig. He was an awesome guy. I expect that he died happy in the knowledge that we'll manage to burn the world down around us in no time.

One of the great comics of our time. I will remember him fondly.

There are no words to describe how sad I was when I found out that we lost one of the greatest comedic minds of all time! The world is a less funny place with his passing.

Carlin could be funny--occasionally--and I certainly do not want to talk ill about somebody who just passed; but the fact is that he was a crude, bitter, gun-hating, left-wing, ego-maniacal nut job.

Good thing that I didn't want to talk ill about the guy, eh?

He was my favorite comic...I will miss him big time.....

In memory....as he liked to open up his shows........

Carlin = "So how's everyone doing tonight ?"
Audience = "GREAT !"
Carlin = "Well.....**** YOU"

He will be missed. He was one of the icons that paved the way towards having a sense of humor, not taking anything too seriously, and always being able to laugh.
