George Carlin: Dies of Heart Failure
Funny man, George Carlin, died of heart failure at the age of 71 in Santa Monica, California on Sunday. Carlin was admitted to the hospital complaining of chest pains and had a history of heart problems.
The raunchy comic had a career spanning 50 years and released 22 solo albums and three bestselling books during that time. His last show was at the The Orleans in Las Vegas last week and Carlin was next planning on taking a month off to relax.
Carlin is survived by his wife Sally Wade; daughter Kelly Carlin McCall; son-in-law Bob McCall; brother Patrick Carlin; and sister-in-law Marlene Carlin.
Carlin’s famous “”seven words you can never say on television” was one of his well-known audience favorites and it seemed like no topic was too controversial for him.
I personally love the list of alternate names for the penis. My favorite: dart of love.
