\nFrom Monday, November 10, 2008 at 8 p.m:
\nGeorge Carlin<\/strong> – 2008 Prize Recipient of The Eleventh Annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor – presented at The Kennedy Center.<\/p>\n

“The Kennedy Center will posthumously award The Mark Twain Prize to the late George Carlin at the eleventh annual Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. The evening will recognize the life and achievements of the late comedian. Carlin passed away on June 22, 2008” read more from The Kennedy Center website… <\/a><\/p>\n

This is a YouTube video of the Oldies<\/strong> tune: “CHERRY PIE”, written by Joe Josea, Jules Taub & Marvin Phillips, performed by George Carlin<\/strong> – live on the Arsenio Hall Show<\/strong> – Thursday, 30 November 1989. There is a bit of banter before George sings the song, but it’s worth the wait. This is a fine, magical R&R moment. It’s very revealing…
\nThe last time I saw George Carlin, we were passing each other near the Starlight Lounge at the Stardust – just a “Hey Man.” <\/p>\n
