Morgan Freeman

La-la-la with Morgan Freeman

I've had various (la-la-la-la) go-to outlets over the years, for when I'm feeling "bad stuff" overload (ahem).  RFD-TV was one.  Some will remember me posting cattle auction videos.  More recently I turned to EWTN (Catholic TV), but their world news is really very good, which means very troubling.  I feel guilty using eff-words in church, so to speak.  Lately I turn to my cache of Through the Wormhole episodes, narrated by Morgan Freeman. I can't think of a better speaking voice than his.  Add to that his acting career.  No, not just that every movie he makes is eminently watchable; it's that he's the rare Hollywooder who seems to be grounded; nowhere close to your typical movieland left-bot.  He's someone very easy to like.  Anyway, I go to sleep listening to Wormhole every night, and every morning I wake with a wonderful understanding of quantum physics - that I unfortunately can't remember.  Maybe Freeman's best moment - maybe the best moment any American has ever had - is this 60 second clip from a Black History Month interview with Mike Wallace.  Morgan Freemen may be the smartest guy in the country.
