George Carlin, who was always running up against the regulators, with his routines about drugs, dirty words and the demise of humanity, has died of heart failure at Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica about 6 p.m PDT, Sunday. He was 71.
He had earlier been admitted complaining of chest pains. He had a history of heart problems.
“I don’t have any beliefs or allegiances. I don’t believe in this country, I don’t believe in religion, or a god, and I don’t believe in all these man-made institutional ideas,” he once said.
H had said he was looking forward to an afterlife where he could watch the decline of civilization on a “heavenly CNN.”
Yes its a sad loss to the entertainment world, love his comedy and he did make you take notice and see the sillyness in this world of ours and politics…
