George Carlin 1937-2008
From his "Seven Words" routine that got him thrown in the slammer by the censor police, to his memorable stint as the Buddy Christ-slingin'-Cardinal on Kevin Smith's Dogma, Carlin was a comdedic trailblazer who brought a no BS approach to his comedy where no stone--be it sex, religion, politics--was left un-turned.

(in)famous stand-up act...

Video Cop-Out: Edwin San Juan--A Damn Funny Filipino Comedian!
OK, so I randomly discovered this Filipino American comic, Edwin San Juan, and he almost made me laugh my socks off!
