RIP George Carlin

R.I.P George Carlin

SANTA MONICA, Calif. - A publicist for George Carlin says the legendary comedian has died of heart failure at a hospital in Santa Monica, Calif.

Jeff Abraham says Carlin went into St. John's Health Center on Sunday afternoon, complaining of chest pain. Carlin died at 5:55 p.m. PDT. He was 71.

Carlin, who had a history of heart trouble, performed as recently as last weekend at the Orleans Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas. It was announced Tuesday that Carlin was being awarded the 11th annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

I've seen some of his stand up sessions, they were good.
I say good, because I didn't really enjoy them but I got a chuckle now and again.
Still, having said that, A comedian who dies is a loss :(

RIP buddy!
