Title: What Happened to the "Foole"?
Review: I used to love George Carlin. I thought he was the funniest thing this side of hell and damnation. But in recent years (I trace it back to the first heart attack, myself) his humor muse seems to have deserted him. Most of this stuff does not even remotely compare to the early Carlin stand-up albums. And I am not a right-wing wacko who is offended by the anti-Christian stance that Carlin seems to make a staple of his comedy these days. I just don't think very much of it is very funny. Some of the pieces here, to be sure, sent me into spasms of hysterics, but these were few and far between. My reccommendation? Get Carlin's Little David Years box set which has the classic "Occupation: Foole" (as referenced in my title) as well as six others including the Grammy Award winning "FM & AM".
