I was really saddened to hear about the death of George Carlin this past Sunday. Carlin and Cosby were the very first stand-up comedians I'd ever learned about, and I still remember borrowing their comedy albums from the public library.

Carlin was truly a creative genius and his material will live on for a long time to come.

Comedy Central put together an online tribute page featuring videos of some of his funniest performances. Click the link below and prepare to laugh -- but you might want to turn the volume down on your computer, George always knew that some of the funniest jokes were not 'safe for work.'

Good night Mr. Carlin -- thanks for the laughter and for making me think.
