In case you missed it, Jerry Seinfeld eulogized the recently-deceased comedian George Carlin in a Times Op-Ed today: "He worked over an idea like a diamond cutter with facets and angles and refractions of light. He made you sorry you ever thought you wanted to be a comedian. He was like a train hobo with a chicken bone. When he was done there was nothing left for anybody."

Seinfeld's eulogy was brilliant and right on, particularly:
"And it just makes me even sadder to think that when I reach my own end, whatever tumbling cataclysmic vortex of existence I’m spinning through, in that moment I will still have to think, “Carlin already did it.""

Seinfeld didn't write this.
Larry David did.

That makes Seinfeld a eulogist. I'm waiting to see if he ever becomes a comedian.

He was like a train hobo? What other kinds of hobos are there?

I knew he was a mediocre comedian, but had no idea that he was a mediocre writer as well. Thank you New York Times!

What a bunch of jealous piddling jackasses most of you are. Go drink another redbull and spill munchos on your naked flabby chests.
