    Well, of course we could all do with more of him, but he did hang around for seventy-one years - not bad for an alcoholic drug-addicted blasphemer.

    Perfect age to kick the bucket, even more for everybody else, given the shit-storm he has predicted.

    This news really wasn’t what I needed to hear on a Monday morning, let alone knowing I’d have nobody to talk to about it when I got to work. I wish I’d discovered Carlin earlier but I’m glad I did.

    Sucks, I believe, is the technical term. Sigh - scumsucking blobs of slime like Bill O’Reilly, Kelvin Mackenzie and Dubya go on living and jiving and screwing up the world for one and all, but Bill Hicks is dead, Frank Zappa is dead, and George Carlin is dead.

    Sucks.

    He lived twice as long as Bill Hicks and was half as funny…
