Ya know, I've been reflecting on Carlin today and a few things occurred to me:
-Carlin was the narrator of Thomas and Friends, which according to my mom, was my single favorite show as a kid.
-I can remember loving every single minute of his short-lived but funny self-titled comedy show on FOX, even though at that time (the mid-90's), I was still a teenager and completely unaware that he even did stand-up comedy.
-And then, George somehow found his way into my adult life about 6 or 7 years ago, and I've been a huge fan ever since.
Looking back, though, it seems I've been a huge fan of George Carlin since I was in diapers!
