Lio by Mark Tatulli for April 15, 2018

Who is/was Carlin?

And my favorite Carlin joke:

Anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac

George Carlin — ‘Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.’

I’m with Lio…

On one hand, I’m surprised a reader – baby boomer or millennial- wouldn’t merely Google “George Carlin.” On the other hand, I enjoy seeing what stands out to us and how we remember him.

“Forecast for tonight: dark. Continued dark with scattered light towards morning.”

Except that reptiles don’t sweat! [Don’t think molluscs do either, tho they might be slimy…]

@KAPUTNIK Exactly! Thank gosh for Google…

Um…isn’t that an obscene joke from Carlin…? Should Lio have that on his wagon?

“Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?”

One of his cleaner ones that I really loved was his comparison of baseball and football. “In football, you wear a helmet. In baseball, you wear a cap!”

⇧ @templo s.u.d. it’s comforting that you’re here daily to make the rest of us look so intelligent by comparison…

Gimme a Little Red Wagon full of friendly beasties like ’gators, snakes, and giant squids and I will change the world! —Or at least scare the devil out of it. And that would be a Good Thing!

I know Ishmael (Ishy for short), and I know Frank (the snake); but what is the lead reptilian’s name?

I never knew Lio had Gray hair.
