George Carlin's death has obviously been reported far & wide, but you may have missed this nice little piece by Jerry Seinfeld in the NY Times this week.
THE honest truth is, for a comedian, even death is just a premise to make jokes about. I know this because I was on the phone with George Carlin nine days ago and we were making some death jokes. We were talking about Tim Russert and Bo Diddley and George said: “I feel safe for a while. There will probably be a break before they come after the next one. I always like to fly on an airline right after they’ve had a crash. It improves your odds.” Continued here.
George Carlin RIP.
