George Carlin Dies at 71
This entry has nothing to do with health care--except my own--but one of the funniest, most controversial and wonderful comedians--George Carlin--died Sunday. He was an American institution and many comedians, including Bill Maher, Roseanne Barr, Lewis Black and Jerry Seinfeld reflected on his significance to comedy--and to the country--on Larry King Live. Jerry Seinfeld said: "It's been a bad day--nobody dies at 71 anymore--it is so old fashioned.".
We will miss him......Maybe this is about health care--every time a comedian dies--we all should feel less happy.
