Comedian George Carlin died of heart failure Sunday night at the age of 71. Carlin will forever be remembered as a comedic legend but was far more than a comedian. He was a deeply intelligent man who never stopped reminding us that sometimes the only difference between comedy and abomination depends more upon us than it. Unlike most comedians, George's success on stage could never be measured by an audience's laughter or silence - only in the potency and perspicacity of his words.
He will be missed.
