I got my first Carlin album when I was in high school. I now have 5 of them and a few, like Charlatan, I had memorized. I could recite the Hair poem at the drop of a hat, would quote Al Sleet, the Hippy Dippy weatherman and nod in agreement on many of his observations. His bit about "If you take 7 white boys and 1 black boy and put them in a room together, you won't get the 1 black boy saying, "Gee, fellas, good game today.", but you WILL get 7 white boys saying, "Yo, Man, Whassup." And that was over 30 years ago.
71 these days is not old. He was and always will be an icon.
What a sad way to start a week.....
