My favorite comedian of all time.

I saw him live a half dozen times. Last time was at the Fox theater in Atlanta just a few months before he died. I can remember laughing so hard at times that I'd have trouble catching my breath.

R.I.P to one of the top 3 of all time.
I don't have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog.

He narrated Thomas the Tank Engine. Talk about weird.

He was a favorite of the professor one of my religious studies courses I had to take to complete my degree. He'd block off 30 minutes every couple of classes to play Carlin bits.

And he was excellent.

I think Eddie Murphy had a bit where he talked about listening to Richard Pryor albums in secret and barely able to keep his laughter under control.
My brother and I were the same way about this album when we were kids:
