I had a feeling I wouldn't casually forget an experience like that! Shirl, I don't know what it is about you, me, and comedy, but you will forever remind me of Denis Leary, too. Dad, don't let mom sell those albums on eBay. Or let other children in the house turn them into wall clocks, like my Thriller album. Ahh, no wonder I don’t remember meeting him.

I still have the "Class Clown" album" "Conduit!, ya get Conduit!!!" His last performance was only a cpl weeks ago. What a talent! He’ll be missed.

How could you throw away meat cake? SOMEBODY is saving it!!! It's funny, because when I found out last night you were the first person I thought of. We didn't get to meet him, though. My mom and little brother did and you gave them your album to get signed. I wish we met him. Believe it or not I still have that shirt! This is a sad day in Loon history. Shirl, I’m so sad.

I was really glad to see your blog posting re Carlin. I was saddened by the news as well. Same damn, wonderful memories of listening to his records. Such a loss. Hugs from your erstwhile Office BFF.

Being a vintage 60's kid, the first memories I have of him are as his "Hippy Dippy Weatherman" persona, but sometime around junior high, we all managed to covertly hear the album with the seven dirty words and of course, memorize them. Scott and I watched his last HBO special (I think it came out in March) and even though there seemed to have been a more angry, bitter edge to his humor over the last decade, he was still one quick, funny motherfucker ;) I was terribly sad to hear of George Carlin’s death too.
