I guess George Carlin finally had to move his shit so someone else would have somewhere to put their stuff. He died of heart failure at the age of 71.

From the Reuters obit: Carlin told Playboy that his sensibilities developed in the 1950s, "when comedy stopped being safe ... (and) became about saying no to authority."He cited such influences as Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl, Dick Gregory and Bob Newhart.

Bob Newhart and Lenny Bruce. I'm gonna miss you, man.
