Johnny Carson - We’ll Miss You

On January 23, 2005 - the world lost one of the greatest comedians EVER, as Johnny Carson died after a incredible career. In wouldn’t surprise me if Johnny made more people laugh than any man ever born. No kidding. For those too young to remember, Johnny Carson was as big in the world of laughs as Elvis was to music. What made Johnny so darn special - was not only his timing and his razor sharp wit - but mostly i think…. it was his huge heart. Yes - he would poke fun and goof on people, but i never saw him do it in a mean way. He didn’t get his laughs at the expense of others… which seems to be standard operating procedure in comedy today. It is quite a special gift, making others laugh… and to do it in a way that celebrated life, instead of dumping on people - is a sweet spot in comedy that Johnny owned.

May God bless you Johnny Carson - and I hope all of heaven is giving back to you… all the sweet and gentle laughter you gave to so many. You deserve it.
