Title: The Nutty Misanthrope
Review: "F@#$ hope." That's how George Carlin describes his worldview in the preface of Braindroppings. "...if you think there is a solution, you're part of the problem." Then he goes on to describe himself as "a joyful individual with a long and happy marriage". I think Carlin still excels at what he does best, joking about our misuse of the English and about things we all experience in everyday life that we never discuss. Still, read this book only if you desire a depressing, incoherent rant. A manic Andy Rooney.All this leaves me wondering where Carlin's performance-related bombast ends and his real feelings begin. "When I see children today, I think of tomorrow's f#$%ed-up adults." This can't be the same guy who narrates Thomas the Tank Engine stories for kids' TV. Or can he?
