congrats to the voters and non-voters who put the president in office -- not sure when my transgender child will be able to renew their U.S. passport AND VISIT THEIR GRANDPARENTS AGAIN

any number of appearances on THE ELECTRIC COMPANY or SESAME STREET ... off the top of my head, how about Joan Rivers as the narrator and Gene Wilder as the voice of the hero in "The Adventures of Letterman" or the Pointer Sisters singing the "Pinball Number Count" shorts
