Day of the dead is gonna be funny this year…

24 June 2008

I had a Mexican acquaintance whose late dad once showed up on Day of the Dead.  She told him to get lost, they were doing fine without his kibbutzing…

George Carlin (12 May 1937 – 23 June 2008, D.E.P.) was Irish Catholic, but maybe he should have been Mexican…

    Get it right please…

    Carlin was an atheist. He detested religion especially Roman Catholicism.

    If he would have been born in Mexico and had the same life in poverty that he had in the US, there is little doubt that he would have eventually escaped to America.

    Certainly… an atheist of the Irish persuasion, who would have had great fun with the Mexican Catholic traditions.
