Sad news today - RIP Geogre Carlin

The first thing to pop up on my screen this morning was the news that George Carlin had passed away last night. My first reaction was disbelief and great sadness. I was furthered saddened that I could only relay this news to my husband, who also holds George Carlin is high esteem, everyone else only remembers him for the last few film appearances he made and that Bill & Ted movie. Now that is truly sad. Lucky for us Will and I got a chance to see him in concert about five or six years ago, and we actually didn't have to far. I have great pictures from about the sixth row center. I will miss him dearly. And I will look forward to hearing him honored with the Mark Twain award and the Kennedy Center honors later this year. Cheers!
