CaterwaullerGeorge Carlin
Has anyone else heard any of the recent interviews with George? He's got a new book out, _When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops_ and seems to be doing the circuit.
I saw him on
"Inside the Actor's Studio" on Sunday, and yesterday heard him on "
Fresh Air" on NPR. He did talk about his love of language, and the joy of words! Apparently he's working on a Broadway show, too, but he didn't really talk about that.

jheemI heard him on the Terry Gross interview. He's a fine comic.

Hic et ubiqueCW says, "
George did talk about his love of language, and the joy of words!" Indeed.
. . . . . . . . .I'm aware some stare at my hair.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . In fact, to be fair,
. . . . . . . . . Some really despair of my hair.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .But I don't care,
. . . . . . . . . . . .Cause they're not aware,
. . . . . . . . . . . . Nor are they debonaire.
. . . . . . . . . . . In fact, they're just square.
. . . . . . . . . . They see hair down to there,
. . . . . . . . Say, "Beware" and go off on a tear!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I say, "No fair!"
. . . . . . . .A head that's bare is really nowhere.
. . . . . . So be like a bear, be fair with your hair!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Show it you care.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Wear it to there.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Or to there.
. . . . . . . . . . . . Or to there, if you dare!
. .My wife bought some hair at a fair, to use as a spare.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Did I care?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Au contraire!
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Spare hair is fair!
. . . . . . . . . . . . In fact, hair can be rare.
. . . . . . . . . . . . Fred Astaire got no hair,
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Nor does a chair,
. . . . . . . . . . . . .Nor a chocolate eclair,
. . . . . . . . . And where is the hair on a pear?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . Nowhere, mon frere!
. . . . So now that I've shared this affair of the hair,
. . . . . I'm going to repair to my lair and use Nair.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Do you care?
