Legendary comedian George Carlin died last night after going to the hospital Sunday afternoon complaining of chest pain. Carlin was refereed to as "The counterculture's hero", and I suppose he was. I have seen tons of Carlin's stand up comedy, and more HBO Specials than I can count and absolutely loved it. I admit that I used to cringe a little, when Carlin attacked some elements of Government and the structure of society because I surely did not share his political opinions. That fact never stopped me from respecting his heartfelt opinions or realizing just how funny the man was. George was the best at what he did and he will be missed and mourned by many. We shall never look upon his like again.
