Since the Academy Awards Show omitted George Carlin (among others) from it's remembrance video last Sunday, I thought I'd offer a little video I found on YouTube. This is a nutshell version of his rise to fame, a few highlights of his various acts, and a wonderful comment by him at the end. George was often controversial, but he never was afraid to be himself or to say what he believed in. I remember watching him many times on the Johnny Carson Show when I was a kid. Rest in Peace, George; I hope you're making lots of people laugh in heaven.
