Ooh, good point on Louis CK and the others.* Still, I guess I'd like to see a slightly less acrid Carlin - does one of the ones on the list seem suitable for that? Someone to call Bullshit without the note of bitter?* That was the only thing about Carlin I didn't care for; he had a note of bitterness that grew through the decades.* It went from bemused to angry guy to cranky old man.* I liked the bemused best :) Louis CK has taken Carlin's torch. There is also Tim Minchin, Eddie Izzard, Lewis Black, Jim Jeffries...
