US comic George Carlin dies at 71: report
WASHINGTON (AFP) — Irreverent US comedian George Carlin, who became known as a voice of the 1970s counterculture and was one of the country’s best known funny men, died on Sunday aged 71, US media reported.
The Grammy award winner, whose career spanned five decades, died of heart failure, his publicist Jeff Abraham told the New York Times.
Carlin had a history of heart problems and passed away in Santa Monica, California after checking into the hospital with chest pains.
He won four Grammy Awards, including one for his 1972 comedy recording “FM & AM,” in which he combined his older, more conventional material that entertained audiences in the 1950s and 60s, with his new, edgier and more controversial style.
Gray-bearded and often dressed in black casual attire, Carlin frequently admitted to drug use and shocked 1970s audiences with his hit “Seven Words That Can Never Be Said on Television.” (Source: AFP)

He wants to write a pop-up book.

And MSNBC discusses if George W. Bush is an “Idiot”? He probably is and he’s a funny one. He was much better at the elections actually. He got worse when he become president. Being president is probably the most stressful job and he’s not handling it well with all the blunders in policies.
Is Bush an “Idiot”?
I wonder how would Obama do when he becomes president. Clinton? Nah…

Jimmy Kimmels F@cking Ben Affleck Response to Matt and Sarah
Sarah Silverman sings I’m Fucking Matt Damon in the Jimmy Kimmel Live. Jimmy Kimmel was previously known for cutting off Matt Damon’s appearances on TV, always saying something like “Apologies to Matt Damon, due to constraints…” The tune’s so catchy and I replayed it 10 times already I think.
