In Disk 2 of Napalm and Silly Putty track 3 paints a vivid picture of this week. ---

I just read the book a few weeks ago, and IIRC, he mentions how “cool” it would be for someone to crash a plane into Times Square. ☹ ---

I bootlegged Carlin at the Comedy Store in L.A. back in June. He did a bit called “I Kind Of Like It When A Lot Of People Die”, which was a monolouge about what fun he (and we) get out of watching disasterous events on TV. This was also to be the title of his next HBO special in November, but I wonder if he’ll still do it? It seems too tasteless to do now, but I have a feeling he will anyway. ---

Didn’t find it on Aimster but it does have his Dennis Miller Live appearance about millitary service. “I’m waiting for when they can get those anthrax germs a suitcase and set’em off in the middle of a city. That’ll be fun.” “Ancient hatreds, modern weapons, my kinda show!” I love George.
