George Carlin Spoken Last Words

Comedian George Carlin, passed away June 22nd, 2008 of heart failure. He was taken to emergency after complaining about heart pains. He died a short time later at the hospital. Carlin had a history of heart attacks

For Carlin, no subject was off limits. Sex, drugs, politics, actors, actresses, human race, religion, the weather, and even death itself. Carlin had his own genius spin and view of the human race and all of it's glory and faults.

Urban legends are already racing across the Internet like a California wildfire on what George Carlin's last words were. Some of the rumors I believe to surface are:

Goodbye.

I'm coming Brenda. (His late wife)

Nixon assassinated Kennedy. (Everyone already knows that)

Tonight's forecast, Dark. Continued to stay dark all night. scattered light in the morning. (One of his bits)

Please god, don't let me die. (Carlin was dead set against religion and God. He did not believe in God, a supreme being, the devil, the afterlife. To him, once you die, thats it. No bright light, no vestal virgins, no heavens gate. Just emptiness) I believe this one will make the rounds claiming Carlin at the end, returned to his faith and pleaded for mercy.

But the Grassy Knoll Institute has a different opinion on Carlin's last words. A showman and comedian to the end, perhaps he uttered the one line that made him famous. From the seven dirty words you cannot say on television. (Shit, piss, fuck, cocksucker, motherfucker, cunt, and tits)

That would be George Carlin.
