: Essentially Contested AmericaGeorge Carlin, Dead at 71
By Robert Justin Lipkin
ADVERTISEMENTS
The NY Times reports today that "George
Carlin, the Grammy-Award winning standup comedian and actor who was hailed
for his irreverent social
commentary, poignant observations of the absurdities
of everyday life and language, and groundbreaking routines like 'Seven Words You
Can Never Use on Television,' died in Santa Monica, Calif., on Sunday, according
to his publicist, Jeff Abraham. He was 71." For the full Times article click here. Mr. Carlin, a great social critic in the tradition of Lenny Bruce and Richard Pryor, once did a bit examining the notion of "pulling the plug" when terminally ill. He would have none of it. Instead, he demanded that, should he fall into those circumstances, he wanted his physican to get an extension chord. George Carlin perseverated about death and now death has finally come to claim him.Full post as published by Essentially Contested America on June 23, 2008 (boomark / email).
