    #georgecarlininterview
    George Carlin (1937 - 2008) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, amateur philosopher, author, and social critic. He was known for his black comedy and reflections on politics, the English language, psychology, religion, and various taboo subjects. He and his "seven dirty words" comedy routine were central to the 1978 U.S. Supreme Court case F.C.C. v. Pacifica Foundation, in which a 5-4 decision affirmed the government's power to regulate indecent material on the public airwaves. Widely regarded as one of the most important and influential American stand-up comics of all time, Carlin was dubbed by one newspaper to be "the dean of counterculture comedians".
    Tom Snyder (1936 - 2007) was an American pioneering television personality and figure in broadcast journalism who brought a no non-sense attitude to broadcast television news. He was best known for his late nigh talk shows Tomorrow (NBC) and The Late Late Show with Tom Snyder (CBS). His engaging style combined with his irascible attitude, made him one of the best known journalists of his time, back when having a nationally televised and thought provoking late night talk show actually meant something. It was a totally different time in television, as the news was delivered as information with no spin or opinion of the newsman. He marked the end of an era.

    I watched Tom as a kid on the Tomorrow Show then later in my 20s he was on nighttime radio.
    Didn't catch the Late Late show because I didn't have the channel.
    Tom was the best interviewer ever to grace the airwaves.
    I don't think any guests were nervous about going on unlike other shows.

    george was so brutally honest, his take on drugs is very insightful, without all the idiotic stereotypes and public announcement messages, he just tells it like it is, was. as an artist you do use it as a lift, times when i was doing labor work, it became so much easier getting thru the day high, work almost became fun, without it, it was pure drudgery.
    i never understood people who go to "work" happy about what they're doing. straight. altho there are advantages in blue collar work, like being outside, being away from structure, rigidity. tried the office thing and it was impossible, all the politics and stupid rules... i once got wrote up for candy at my desk, i forced them to write "m & m's" as the reason for my write up. and taking drugs on that job wouldn't help.

      In 1997 debit cards were still a new thing. Now, in my opinion, they're more convenient than cash. And credit cards are much faster than in 1997, too. You rarely have to sign for an everyday purchase now and they're not manually running it through one of those big bulky readers.
