Death of The Wordsmith

You ever notice that the women who are against abortion are women you wouldnt want to fuck in the first place?
-- George Carlin

Death of The Wordsmith
George Carlin has been one of my favorite comedians of all time and had become an influence on my own humor. His use of word play was legendary, especially for his "Seven Dirty Words You Can Never Say On Television."

I always remembered his rant on being a fussy eater:
Fussy eater is an euphamism for "Big Pain In The Ass." Those are the people that will sit at the table and say "I can't eat that. I don't like that. Did you make that? Is there a picture of it in the cook book? I bet it don't look like that."

Carlin was irreverant, abusive, and never apologetic. No one was ever safe from his insight and commentary. Nor should they be. After all, if you cant laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at?

I bet he's looking up at us now and smiling. Heh.

Before our innocence was lost,
You were always one of those
Blessed with lucky sevens,
And the voice that made me cry.
