George Carlin, Dead at 71


George Carlin died. AUUUGHHGGH!

Carlin was a major influence on my comedy education; I took a lot of my intonation, my use of voices, my use of words, from him. In my estimation, no comic had better timing than Carlin (at least until the 80s... his recent material is best forgotten). Very sad to lose an influence of such stature.
