I am deeply saddened to report that my all time favorite comedian George Carlin passed away today. He was my inspiration for a lot of my humor and I even managed to perform one of his famous bits, “The Eleven O’Clock News” for my drama class in high school.
I was fortunate enough to see him in Vegas on my birthday in 2001. It was the day after the 9/11 attacks so it was a bit of an awkward situation but I was grateful to see him perform. He made us forget the horrible events of the day before if not for at least 90 minutes.
I will miss you George, Rest in Peace.

I have been following the 2008 Presidential campaign with great interest since the beginning, and it seems the longer it continues the more HRC’s campaign is imploding. I am one of those strange people who liked Bill Clinton as a president, yet despises her with every fiber of my being.
At this point, being so far behind in delegates, popular votes and states won, she has seemed to switch to a scorched earth campaign so she can make Barack Obama unelectable so McCain will win and she can run again 2012. I am really hoping this backfires. Barack Obama is the first presidential candidate I’ve been excited about in my lifetime. Normally it is choosing the lesser of two evils. Who knows if he will make a good president, but he clearly couldn’t do any worse than our current monkey in the White House.
