As kids we would all sneak into my buddies basement and listen to Carlin albums with other pre-pubescent lads and laugh till it hurt. I happen to live in Milwaukee but I am not old enough to remember when he was arrested here. Truly a shame...

Carlin was a pioneer of stand up comedy. Sad to see him go.

Carlin was my favorite comedian ever. He will be greatly missed.
