What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published June 23, 2008 at 4:15 p.m.

Our entry today is dedicated to comedian George Carlin, who died Sunday at age 73.

Thanks to a controversial appearance in 1972, Carlin will forever be linked to Milwaukee and Summerfest. While opening for singer Arlo Guthrie, Carlin launched into his "Seve Words You Can't Say on Television" bit and was arrested by Milwaukee Police, who charged him with disorderly conduct.

Carlin went on to re-brand the bit as "The Milwaukee Seven."

In this clip, Carlin talks about death.

(WARNING: LIKE MANY OF CARLIN'S BITS, THIS CONTAINS VERY EXPLICIT LANGUAGE).
