    In 1988 I was doing a public access show in Los Angeles...The Late Mr Pete Show. One night after a show, George Carlin called me at home and told me he didn't know what the F I was doing, but not to stop...George invited me to his home for Christmas dinner, and to Vegas to see him doing his act. 3 yrs later I had my own show on KTLA 5 in L.A. and won an emmy for best host. He saw something in me, and showed me nothing but kindness... Truly a nice, decent man...

    I'd just say George was simply telling the truth of the world and people. He did it in comic way, but it was and it still is, all truth. Only a lot of people don't have the guts to say it out loud and with class as he did. For that he will always be remembered and loved. Thank you George for speaking for all of us.

    In 1978 or so George Carlin wandered into my father's bookstore in Westlake Village, California.
    I absolutely knew who he was (I was like 16 or 17 at the time). I worked at my father's bookstore at this time. Of course, I *wasn't* working when he came in. Would've LOVED to have met him.
    Maureen McCormick ('Marcia' from 'The Brady Bunch') also wandered in sometime. I was not working then, either! Would've LOVED to have met her. The two famous people that came in when I was working were Robert Young (from 'Father Knows Best' and 'Marcus Welby, M.D.') and Mickey Rooney. It was very nice meeting both of them.

      Oh boy Kim !! He would be totally , both shocked and furious about all of the lunatics in charge of the asylum ( a.k.a. govt.) and the gender fluid, pronoun usage forced on "We the People" and if you do not fold or comply, or even just speak as you always have , saying Mr., Mrs., him, her, girl or boy you face actual criminal charges. Non-binary, woke and more and more crap. This is pseudo science. It is dangerous and the agenda is to divide us citizens and remove anything they deem a threat to their agenda, and there we have the white hate and Alpha male hate, because we WILL pick up our "tools" and accessories and fight it all. That rainbow flag does nothing but say, "you are not welcome or wanted". And they claim to be all love and acceptance. We are called Nazi fascists, yet we fought a war for four years and died by the thousands daily against real Nazi`s who would murder every one of those people. They have freedom to act this way because men paid the price in blood in combat to have these rights. Who is the real fascists? I am sorry, but your comment was simple and yet it was brilliant in thought. What would George say?? A whole lot is my feeling. Take care and I wish you well, again I am sorry I got a bit heated.

    -in the 70's, comedy albums were big - like music albums - there were 2 wildly popular albums at the time - the Cheech and Chong album, and the George Carlin album - the Cheech and Chong album was absolutely hilarious, and the George Carlin album was, believe it or not, even funnier - like, genius-level hilarious - it made me laugh so hard, my stomach muscles got all torn up, and were killin' me all day the next day !!! we would listen to those albums the same way you'd listen to a music album - over and over and over again, and they never stopped bein' funny

      Yea George was my hero and then I learned some words -seven of them- that almost got me expelled. I also grew up with comedy albums in the 70’s and before with Tom Lehrer. There used to be comedy albums that would take bits of popular songs of the day and make them funny. Breakfast with the baloneys was also a favorite (and seriously dating myself. Lol) Rip George. You have to wonder if he’s seriously pissed off God by now. ;-)

      Never saw George live but he was so good. Saw his transformation from the Burns and Carlin era to his stand up suit comedian then onto the college circuit and then HBO. Pure genius. Saw Cheech and Chong in the very early days when they played in Vancouver in a topless revue they called Vancouver City Works. It was held in a topless bar that was trying to appeal to the raincoat bunch and the dopers. The bar was owned by Tommy Chong’s dad who had a reputation that may have been deserved or not. They were developing the doper skits that the became famous for and I think was recorded in an album called Big Bamboo. They deserved to succeed as hey stuck with it. I remember there might have been a crowd of less than ten in the audience. Ah those were the days

      Totally agree. In high school I used to find myself using his ideas because they were just so insightful. I wore "Class Clown" and "Occupation Foole" out in vynil and fake quoted them in book reports and stuff. I borrowed from him the fake quotation. I got several "A"s by referring to the British Colinial Shipping Board (which did not exist and so I could quote saying anything). Other times I followed his example of selecting to my own criteria. What's a teacher with 30 of these things to grade in one night gonna do, research? 😇 Confidence, baby. 😁

I know Carlin had some troubles in the early 2000s but it's interesting that he was never invited back after getting clean.
