Farewell, Sir 
In case you didn't hear, George Carlin died yesterday from heart failure. I had a feeling that this day was coming soon. Audra and I saw him a little while ago and he was looking pretty old then. It was like he had aged 20 years in the last 5 years. At any rate, thank you George for the laughs.That's not all he did for me, anyway. I've always loved his observational humor because it was all around us be we seldom noticed it. His keen eye for the random and his use of language pretty much changed how I saw the world. Ok, my philosophy classes had something to do with it, too.
I didn't agree with some of his political and religious views, but his control of the English language and his skeptical views pretty much have made me question everything. Thank you, George. You will be missed.
