If there is a god, I would think he would be in stitches about now listening to the "Seven words you can't say on television" routine.

i've been listening to george carlin for almost 40 years, and was very sad to hear he had died. he was an original thinker, a king of scathing sarcasm and hysterically funny - he will be missed
