Man this is sad news. He was in my opinion, the funniest man alive. Here are some of his best stand up acts for those interested:

Just heard about his death this morning at 1. I remember seeing him first on SNL when he did his classic about Baseball v. Football.
Always liked watching him on HBO and his short-lived TV series, because Carlin always had a unique perspective on life. Mainly because most of the things he made fun of are essentially true about life.
He'll definitely be missed.

Went to see him just this winter, and he did a very funny routine on death at that show, losing friends and what to do with their address book entries on your computer. Thanks for decades of laughs, George. RIP.

I've listed to George Carlin since long before I should have known some of the words you can't say on television.
His insights into baseball and football, what's its like to grow up Catholic, drugs, sex, and the like were all dead on.
He was a man for his time, and spoke for a generation of Americans.

And the Lord said, "Time to come home to Papa, you Son-of-a-B**ch!"
George said, "No way, Dude. F*** You!"
And the rest of the living looked on, stunned, knowing who would prevail in that discussion and quietly contemplating our loss.
