I know exactly what you mean. I heard the news on the radio around 1:00 this morning. A actually sat with my mouth hanging open for a good minute. What can I say? He will be missed.

Yonsan will be devastated, as will my brother Alex, they both love Carlin.
I remember seeing an episode or two of the George Carlin show as a kid.
I'm not shocked though. Sad the world has lost a pretty heavy duty comedian- yes, but not shocked. Being in his 70s he is a little young to die-- but Carlin really led a full life (books, awards, wild years, family, influence, and a following).
Looks like heaven is just plain getting full of the great icons: Barry White, Mr. Rogers, Mother Theresa, and now Carlin. Though I'm not sure exactly how George Carlin's humor would work in heaven...

The first time I recall SEEING him on television was when my brother, Steven, used to watch Shining Time Station and he took over as Mr. Conductor for Ringo Starr. 3nodding He was a great, great man! He even had such a wonderful sense of humor (even if some of it was a bit out there for some). rolleyes He will be missed.

I think I like different comedians for different reasons.
I think Carlin had a gift for making a real point with humor.
I think that's why I'm a big Paula Poundstone fan. She came to my campus Senior year and talked to us (and added some jokes). Never has a speaker gone over by 2 hours and I stayed, riveted, on a night before a massive test. She's a pretty inspiring woman if you ever get a chance to hear her speak in person. The best was her response when a little old man got up and asked her why she didn't have a husband.
Though Carlin is definitely edgier.
