I didn't know that

Today's useless fact is:

The characters of Bert and Ernie on Sesame Street were named after Bert the cop and Ernie the taxi driver in Frank Capra's movie It's a Wonderful Life.

Like your new icon.

Hey, I thought you were on blog vacation but I see you are posting pretty regular. Good on you.

Having owned copies of both a Duran Duran cassette (y'all remember those, right?)and Barbarella, I found your useless factiod to be, well useless. Interesting, though.

That's always been one of my goals, R' Ed - useless but interesting.
