Re: George Carlin: Read this in the paper today. And this is not one of the "Nine Words You Can Never Say On Air--" George said it's okay if you say you "prick your finger", but NOT okay to say "you finger your -----."

I thought that was hilarious. Susil

Sue, I found it on Audible.com. It's called "Classic Gold" and there are several others there too.

Carlin was a great favorite of mine. I'm sorry I missed the HBO special.
I hope they run it again.

Hi teal; HBO ran hours of Carlin's routines last night (Thursday)
(And here at 4:30am he's on again.) Hope you get to see him.

Did you see the special last night on HBO on him...they had a marathon of his shows at different colleges...it was fantastic

Hi elfie; I did see that, and enjoyed it immensely.
He was a sharp guy.

What a guy....

Hi marta; so right!

George Carlin was a very wise and witty man.I also read he only had a ninth grade education.It's hard to believe he is gone.

Hi dogs; He was astute and acerbic at pointing out human
foibles; I didn't know he was more or less self educated!

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 2:44 AM ()

When I went out of town recently, I listened to a collection of his routines while I was driving! I love his humor.

comment by catdancer on June 25, 2008 6:56 PM ()

Hi Karen; I'm gonna have to see if I can find a collection
of his routines--I liked the one about people and their
"stuff." (That's an old one.)

Hi ducky,

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 2:48 AM ()

Oh, I'm so sorry to see the "hippy dippy weatherman" leave us. PS: I wonder what those other two words are (it's 7)?

comment by solitaire on June 25, 2008 2:48 PM ()

Hi sol; YOU ARE RIGHT!

It is seven words you can
never say on TV, not nine!

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 2:50 AM ()

funny

Hi Hawaii, I also liked Andrew Dice Clay too..

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 2:53 AM ()

Carlin was right up there with Pryor, bridges from the old to the new, hilarious and thought-provoking simultaneously.

comment by looserobes on June 25, 2008 1:08 PM ()

Hi loose; That's what was so enjoyable about his humor, he was
unerring in finding the ridiculous in human behavior.

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 2:58 AM ()

I remember that line.....he certainly had a way with words. He always made us stop and think.

comment by gapeach on June 25, 2008 11:40 AM ()

Hi peach; Yep, even in his over the top routines there was
always that squirmy feeling he was right in his observations.

reply by susil on June 27, 2008 3:13 AM ()

He broke a lot of taboos for all of us.

comment by jondude on June 25, 2008 10:09 AM ()

The Whole Routine in it's original form is on my blog. The label? "George Carlin, RIP"

reply by thestephymore on July 1, 2008 3:02 AM ()

Hi jon; I figured out six of those seven unmentionable
words, but stumped on the seventh!
