My friend Matt just freaked me out by pointing out that Carlin is about the same age as McCain.

That shouldn't be the only thing that freaks you about about McCain, but I digress......

True.

My brother-in-law wants to hire a vaguely Asian-looking dude to show up at each McCain campaign appearance dressed like a VC until it sends him into that horrific PTSD breakdown we know he's ready to have if he ever gets into office.

Dumping his handicapped first wife for the trophy heiress was a sweet move, too.

Oh god, that's hilarious.... the VC thing, that is.

Dan -- that was a damn good summary of Carlin's relevance. Thanks, a good reminder.

The man was a personal hero. Before George Carlin, the last time I felt a pang about a famous person's death was when Mr. Rogers died. Talk about polar opposites. Though Fred Rogers was an iconoclast in his own way.

Wonderfully said, sir.

Thanks!
