George Carlin: One Tequila, Two Techiquila, Three Techiquila - Wow no more Floor!

George Carlin's heart decided to finally stop beating Sunday, June 22, 2008 at 5:55 PST. What happens next to his essential being beats me. As the man himself said,

"Not only do I not know what's going on, I wouldn't know what to do about it if I did."

George Carlin really had a cool way of looking at the world, and as CNN noted in one of the stories I read, it is the quotes the people love. The way he used language to gently mock and open eyes to the very ridiculousness of certain institutions and just life in general.

Wonderful George Carlin Quotes!

"I was thinking about how people seem to read the Bible a whole lot more as they get older; then it dawned on me - they're cramming for their final exam."

"Death is caused by swallowing small amounts of saliva over a long period of time."

"Fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity. "

"Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck."

PUNS!

"I am" is reportedly the shortest sentence in the English language. Could it be that "I do" is the longest sentence?

"Atheism is a non-prophet organization."

"Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things."

I do not believe for one minute the being, the essence that was George Carlin is hanging around here anymore. I do believe that he has passed into whatever happens next. I personally think its going to be a hell of a good time. This place we call home (Earth), and more personally, even though I never met the man, never even saw him perform live, my life was richer too because of George Carlin passing through. I hope that I too can do that, make someone else have a richer life and maybe even make a person or two smile along the way.

I'm not going to pet any sweaty things and I'm sure not going to sweat the petty things, thanks George! Bad Kitty sends love to the universe <3
