I don’t throw words like legend and hero around casually, but that’s just what George Carlin was.   He could kill with observational humor, fart jokes, political material and philosophical musings all in one special.  His honesty, joke writing ability and complete mastery of the language were second to none.  He didn’t suffer fools, and he had an extremely low tolerance for bullshit.  To that end, this clip leads off with one of my favorite Carlin bits.
