George Carlin, my favorite comedian for as long as I can remember (which is actually a pretty damn long time, when it comes to comedians if nothing else), died last night. He was a philosopher and a comedian who managed to stay hilarious and relevant for more than 4 decades. I was fortunate enough to see him perform a couple of years ago, and it just makes me incredibly sad that he’s gone.
