George Carlin enters rehab[views:4511][posts:11]____________________________________ [Dec 29,2004 12:10am - dread_104 ""] from tuesday's herald: GEORGE CARLIN, a counter-culture hero who gained fame with comedy routines about drugs and dirty words, said yesterday he was undergoing treatment for excessive use of alcohol and prescription painkillers. \'\'I'm going into rehab because I use too much wine and Vicodin,'' Carlin, 67, whose latest book \'\'When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?'' is a national bestseller, said in a statement. \'\'No one told me I needed this; I recognized the problem and took the step myself.'' The announcement came weeks after the veteran stand-up comic caused a stir at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas with a performance that questioned the intellect of \'\'moronic'' people who visit the resort city and touched off a bitter, profane exchange with members of the audience, including one woman who shouted \'\'Stop degrading us.'' Carlin has acknowledged having battled cocaine addiction in the 1980s but said he quit on his own by tapering off the drug. He also has suffered three heart attacks. Carlin's spokesman said he entered rehab yesterday but did not know how long he would remain in treatment. Carlin is scheduled to begin a new engagement at Stardust Hotel in Vegas in February. |
