Rei Kuhr Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Sadly, at 6am today, Sunday, one of the funniest, influential, and most well-known comedians of our time passed away. ET breaks the news that comedian George Carlin has died from heart failure. The man who made famous the "seven words you can never say on television" passed away at 5:55 p.m. Sunday at Saint John's Hospital in Santa Monica, his longtime publicist said. He was 71.Carlin, who has had several heart attacks and a history of cardiac issues, went into the hospital this afternoon after complaining of heart problems.Carlin has more than 20 comedy albums, 14 HBO specials, numerous TV and movie roles, and three best-selling books to his credit. Last year, he celebrated his 50th year in show business, and he had just finished his last HBO special in March, "It's Bad for Ya."http://www.etonline.com/news/2008/06/62841/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mith Wakowski Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Over fifty years of funnies. In his honor, I'm watching as much as I can of the things he's done in those 50 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulliver Carpool Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 http://blogs.psychologytoday.com/blog/brai...-last-interviewGeo. Carlin's final interview. [i wonder if it occurred to the reviewer that perhaps it was the length that killed him.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Graves Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 The guy was annoying, and not funny at all. Is it sad he died? sure whatever. Did we lose a good comedian? Not at all, he sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunau Sodwind Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 People cry over the death of one man, when a thousand died in georgia because of russian air strikes..."One death is a tragity, a million is a statistic"america is so funny.

Cyphre Iredell Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 "People cry" is relative to those who care. It being a newsbit doesn't mean anyone cares, its just another piece of information some people might want to know about.I think its sad because he was young, younger than my dad even, and got taken out by some disease.
