Last call for Mr. Carlin

George Carlin stamped his one way ticket today and now has a chance to explain his views on religion to the big guy up there, no doubt with a cigarette in hand and a raised voice.Known as the guy who took black humour and beat the crap out of it, then introduced it to drugs and porn, and then took it around the world for a series of unbelievably insulting stand up shows, Carlin certainly had his fans and also left a footprint on the media. The two combined on YouTube where thousands of kids were delighted to hear the dirty old man telling it like it is. Personally, I’ve always felt that he never really came into his own until the great Bill Hicks moved on, as then George became a little more edgier but still only took the audience close to the line (whereas Bill actually started most of his stuff at the line and carried on from there!) Here’s a short selection (from Mashable) of George Carlin’s best YouTube flicks. If you’re a fan, I know you’ll enjoy them; if you’re one of the uninitiated, well, better late than never.
