George Carlin had 5 distinct periods during his career 60s. Suit, clean shaven, short hair 70s, Casual attire, full beard, long hair 80s, Color pullovers, graying beard, balding head 90s Dark colors, grayish white beard, bald head with ponytail 00s All black, white beard, bald with short hair In all five of these periods he also had a distinctive delivery style. You know you have watched quite a lot of Carlin when you can tell this was recorded in the early 90s, because he had the look of this decade but the delivery is a mix of 80s and 90s
Hiya Brad and Lucy. "Water landing" gets me 🤣 To be fair it should be just called a "watering", surely?! 😂 George Carlin is one of my favourite comedians and have most of his albums. I forget which one this is from but I think it's the early 90's, so that was when I first heard the term "rain event" ...zip forward a couple of decades and that's what I hear when they read the weather. I live down under and it was just before COVID, when first I started hearing "rain event". Great stuff 🤣Thankyouse both for your company, fellow Gobshites! Rob 🤪👍 🇦🇺🤝🇨🇦
" in 1954 Carlin joined the Air Force to use the G.I. Bill to cover the costs of broadcasting school. There aren’t many details about Carlin’s service in the Air Force, but his relationship with the military was rocky. He was trained as a radar technician, and was stationed in Barksdale Air Force Base in Bossier City, Louisiana. Looking back on his service, Carlin was proud to have been generally discharged instead of dishonorably discharged. He was deemed an unproductive Airman and court martialed three times. As a more constructive outlet for his biting comedy, he worked as a disc jockey for the KJOE radio station while on active duty."
My pet-hate is the the word "momentarily". On US airlines, "momentarily" appears to mean "soon". In British English "momentarily" meant "for a short period of time", ie. "briefly". So the US airlines announcement: "we'll be taking off momentarily" also means "we'll take off then land again, maybe just beyond the end of the runway", aka "we'll crash in a moment". 😱 Best Wishes. ☮
My next door neighbor when I was a kid was an airline pilot for TWA. He was a nice guy, but his name was Dick Hazzard. How safe would you feel if your pilot had a name like that?
👋brad and Lucy I thought I could fly, I remember taking off when I landing I found out I couldn't fly I'd just fallen down the stairs, I was pissed and bendy so I didn't break anything 🤪💪🇬🇧
It's a well known fact, that when a "water landing" happens, at least 30% of the passengers drown, because their asses were clenched on that seat cushion, and they were found floating upside down.
Let your smile out. You seem like a genuinely beautiful person. You're hurting yourself by stifling your laugh. If you ain't laughing, you ain't living.
Well language is the way we understand the the world, quite literally. So if you change the language you change the meaning of things and that can be dangerous.
What I hate is when the pilot says we're running a little late for take off, it's not we're a little late I've been at this pissing airport for 3 hours waiting to take off 😑
Brilliant! You can't beat a bit of wordplay and take the piss out of the idiots who haven't got a clue about the English language! 😂😂🤣 It sounds just like the one Dave Allen did 40 years ago.
