Thanks much.

It is hard to believe that the guy didn't graduate from high school.

Is that your measure of mediocrity?

I don't know what the hell he meant, but I think George Carlin was brilliant, and "mediocre" is that last word I would use to describe him.
There just aren't words to describe the sadness and loss I feel about his passing.

Still upset about me giving VK an infraction?

Remember, I told him if he can provide evidence outside of Obama's color in regards to his 'humanitarian in Africa' statement, I would reverse it. He hasn't, so the infraction is still there.

Sounds like someone needs a tissue, ie you.

Well now you've given me something besides color. That's all you had to do. If you said it before and I missed it, my bad.

And, true to my word, I'll reverse the infraction.

Still waiting on Eagleclaw to point out some examples of my 'self-righteousness' though...

What's amazing about Carlin is that my mormon father let me watch each and every Carlin act on HBO when I was six and on up [the first year we had cable].

Incredible!
