Apologies that real work (to the extent that what I do can be called “work”) has gotten in the way of substantive blogging. But I cannot resist sharing the amazing things I learned this weekend — amazing to me, anyway, although it’s possible I’m the only one here who wasn’t clued in.<\/p>\n
Thing the first is that Morgan Freeman, many years before he went through the wormhole, was a regular on The Electric Company<\/a><\/em>, along with performers like Rita Moreno and Bill Cosby. (Via Quantum Diaries<\/a>, of all places.) This was public television’s show from the 70′s that was meant for kids who had moved on from Sesame Street — I was more of a Zoom<\/a><\/em> kid myself, but I must have seen Electric Company episodes with Freeman playing hip dude Easy Reader. <\/p>\n
