Hair
QUOTE
I'm aware some stare at my hair
In fact, some really despair of my hair
But I don't care
'cause they're not aware
nor are they debonair
In fact, they're just square
They see hair down to there
say BEWARE and go off on a tear
I say "No fair"
A head that's bare is really nowhere
So be like a bear
Be fair with your hair
Show it you care
Wear it to there, or to there,
or to THERE if you dare
My wife bought some hair at a fair
to use as a spare
Did I care? Au contraire!
Spare hair is fair
In fact, hair can be rare
Fred Astaire got no hair
nor does a chair
or a chocolate eclair
And where is the hair on a pear?
Nowhere, mon frere
Now that I've shared this affair of the hair
I think I'll repair to my lair
and use Nair, do you care?
George talked several times about death and dying.  Here's a clip from one of my favs.  It starts about 4:48 on this short clip.  George Carlin On the Road and continues through here.

Two minutes, get your sh!t together.

Going to miss you George.

Some of them we've lost because they simply aren't funny anymore, which in some ways is more sad.

Steve Martin
Chevy Chase
Eddie Murphy
Billy Crystal
Robin Williams

At least we still have Steven Wright. He has a relatively new album, similar to his first one ... and it's the same kind of humor without being the same act. I've heard a few snippets of it, and it's some funny stuff.

A comedian I really enjoyed was Dennis Wolfberg.  Died of cancer in 1994, but was on the Tonight Show many times, as well as Pat Sajak's short-lived show.  Also played 'Gooshie' on Quantum Leap.
