Remember "The Electric Company?" Morgan Freeman? Rita Moreno? Bill Cosby?
I kinda felt like I was watching a bizarro kids' show during Wednesday night's debate. My drinking game relied entirely on "Maverick" and "My Friends," so by the end of the night, I was completely sober. "Joe the Plumber?" Really? Wow. I think he was mentioned like, 86 times.
So, all I could think about yesterday was, "It's the plumber! I've come -- to fix -- the sink!" God Bless America-and-YouTube, because I found the original cartoon in 30 seconds.
Only I see it this way: McCain's the guy banging on the door, desperately trying to get in and throw a wrench in Obama's campaign. Obama's the parrot -- cool, unruffled, and all "la-la-la, I can't hear you....Who is it?'" ad infinitum until Grampy loses it. And by "it," I mean the Election.

Last week I shared my list of books I read in 2024 and someone asked me my
favorite, which I can’t do because that’s like picking my favorite child.

I am a child of the 80s but would've LOVED to have seen Electric Company growing up. It looks like it's the shit!
ReplyDeleteIt was awesome. Morgan Freeman was "Easy Reader," this hippie-dude who loved to read. I forget what Bill Cosby did. Rita Moreno, I remember, was just LOUD.
