George Carlin, who died of heart failure Sunday at 71, leaves behind not only a series of memorable routines, but a legal legacy: His most celebrated monologue, a frantic, informed riff on those infamous seven words, led to a Supreme Court decision on broadcasting offensive language.
The counterculture heroâs jokes also targeted things such as misplaced shame, religious hypocrisy and linguistic quirks â why, he asked, do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?
Truly saddening, i considered him to be a great man.
