First I was floored by the sudden passing of Tim Russert. I was always a fan of Meet The Press, and Tim was incredible. But now I wake to the news that George Carlin has passed as well at 71 years of age. George was always one of my favorites. He spoke from the hip, stuck to his guns, and didn't compromise his beliefs and views.
"Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man…living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money."
I'll miss him. This image from Indexed says it best.
