We will miss George Carlin

"Why is the alphabet in that order?

Is it because

♫

of that song?"

"As a matter of principle,

I never attend the first annual anything"

"Don't sweat the petty things

and don't pet the sweaty things"

"When chees

e gets it's picture taken,

what does it say?"

"Frisbeetarianism...

is the belief

that when you die,

your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck."

quotes from George Denis Patrick Carlin 5. 12. 1937 – 6. 22. 2008
Grammy-winning stand-up comedian, actor, and author

Another bad hair day for OldDog's mom.

Dear Stella,

You might be amused
to know that two weeks ago
my hair-cutter was so immersed
in our conv

ersation about your vocal performance on my CD
that not only did she well up
and shed a few tears,
she also cut off a lot more of my hair
than ever before.

She attempted to cover by saying
this was a "summer" cut
but I ain't buying any of it.

After 2 weeks of growth
I'm still not a happy camper.

This "do" most closely resembles that
of John Ritter's character in "Sling Blade"
(remember it??) - NOT meant to flatter.
I don't have much hope that it will improve
any time soon.

So...guess I'll be wearing a hat and exploring other options!
