The SFIA & SFIF Mourns the Terminal Episode of Mr. George Carlin
George Carlin 1937-2008

Because he thought that was funny.

And so do we.

On June 22nd 2008, George Carlin had a Terminal Episode that most of us think he is not going to recover from.

The San Francisco Improv Alliance will dedicate all of its seven weeks of improvisational comedy shows at The San Francisco Improv Festival to Mr. Carlin's life. 

Please Join us at the Purple Onion and the SF Playhouse and raise a glass to Mr. Carlin.
