I was greatly saddened to hear about
the death of a man I never personally
knew. But he was my late night baby sitter, and my late night friend who
made me laugh right before I went to
sleep, saying everything is crazy
but we can still laugh about it. Here
is a silly joke or here is a pretty
actress or a great singer or dancer or
comedian. Here is optimism, humor,hope.
Perhaps it is still to soon to determine
the effect that his death will have on
the mood of this country. I was just
getting over the loss of Rodney Dangerfield of a few months ago. The
loss of these comic geniuses seem almost
an omen of doom. The death of Johnny
Carson three days after the inauguration
of this country's worst president,
who won a fraudulent election, brought this country into an insane war in Iraq, completely backrupted
our treasury. A president who has divided the people of this nation with
his hatred and stupidity and allowed
his crooked friends and corporate cronies to rape the environment, loot
pension plans and to plunder the aging,
destroy the planet by ignoring national pollution and global warming. Sponsoring regime changes that kill millions of helpless victims around the world. Is it any wonder the world is
loosing its great comedians, there is
so little to laugh about anymore and America really needs to laugh again.
Where is Johnny?
