Hey Monica! It's such a great line - I loved it. And I like your pic! If Jake's going to Ireland, just try and stop me! Jake in one of my very favourite places, perfect!

Hi BTW! Thanks for the info about Morgan Freeman - love him :) We have Sesame Street here but I can't remember ever seeing the Electric Co in the UK when I was small. I love Naomi's involvement with it and with Sesame Street - I did a post on it a while back when Jake was named as being included in the new series :D

I loved the Electric Company as a child. Did you know that Morgan Freeman and Rita Moreno (Oscar winner for West Side Story)were regulars on the EC? It was part of Children's Television Workshop, and one of it's creators/writers was Naomi Foner who also was involved with the creation of Sesame Street.

^^It's me! Have a great day, wet dark!

An intelligent man.

Any chance you come to Ireland to see the premiere of Brothers?
Jim Sheridan is in talks for a premiere in Dublin!

Morning everyone! A beautiful day but I'm ready to spoil it by heading off to the gym... I hope everybody, including Jake, has a good day :)

Such great sightings!! Glad he is out and about in Pittsburgh. And his comment at the Pirates game is certainly true. :D

And how adorable is Jake in the Electric Company psa. :)

Always nice to have Peter and Maggie interviews. Have to go to the Parade site to read this one!

Hi bertie! It's all so good to hear. I did enjoy the Parade article and I love Jake's goofy cameo in the video :D

I just updated the post with news of Jake at a baseball game on Saturday. It's a great sighting! Thanks BBMISwear, my guru on all things sporty :DD

What a lovely article about Peter and Maggie - so interesting. It's great that Jake takes such an interest in literacy, and the environment too. I loved the Electric Company spot, and can't wait for to see him on Sesame Street. Nice to hear all the sightings of him in Pittsburgh.

I like bios too - right now we're reading Ted Kennedy's; I'd love to read President Obama's too.

Hi Sweetpea - posting at the same time :D Jake and books is a great combination. I was interested in Interview mag with Natalie that Jake said he'd been reading the new book about Barack Obama - Renegade. I'm a big fan of auto/biographies, I like to think of Jake reading them too :)

2009-09-28T19:17:14.351+01:00
Hi Monica :) That sounds very rewarding. I used to work teaching small children to read. I found that really difficult but I still remember some of the kids quite a few years on.

I hate that too - I can see no comparison between Pear Harbor the movie and Brothers, not least because PH is a bad film. There are elements of it I like but as a whole I have no time for it. That was all about scale and was in your face - Brothers will work on a far more human and real level.

I hope that soon we get some promotion (surely it can't be far off now!) and it'll be interesting to see how they pitch it because - one would have thought - they do want people to buy tickets. Only two months to go.

oh I just loved the Electric Company PSA. yeah that would sure get me to read (if I wasn't already an avid reader)

thanks WDW. oh to be in Pittsburgh now

I don't like when some sites compared Brothers with Pearl Harbor. They are completely different.

I work in education and books.
Last year I did a work on reading in a school. I worked with children. Was gratifying.

2009-09-28T18:01:56.558+01:00
Hi Monica! It's a great cause and one I particularly like to see Jake involved in because I work in education and books. Of course, Jake doesn't leave me any time to read the things but you can't have everything...

We are SO DUE info on Brothers!!! I hope when it comes out that people actually notice and go and see it :/

2009-09-28T17:36:48.433+01:00
Not just to read to children, but some adults also need to read. It's amazing how many adults do not read books.
But it's necessary to interpret what is in context.

I need some information about Brothers. New trailer, photos, interviews ...

Have a great day!

Ooh, TD! So glad to hear you had a Clangers lunch ...

Ooh, TD! So glad to hear you had a Clangers lunch - I had such a good time watching that video :D

Hi Olympia! I really enjoyed the clip too - we need more Jake! He really is goofy, no wonder Pittsburgh is loving him :)

Thanks Anon :D Peter is fascinating. I've enjoyed reading before about his religious and military background (I believe his dad was in the forces). He's complex. No wonder he's such an interesting actor to watch and follow.

I hope everyone's having a good day. I'm just back from seeing Away We Go. Without doubt this is my favourite of Maggie's performances to date. She was sensational and she had the theatre crying with laughter!

2009-09-28T15:17:34.064+01:00
Great post. Had no idea PEter was from the South, Mississippi of all places, and that he was a Catholic. He gets more interesting all the time.

2009-09-28T14:20:46.845+01:00
There's nothing like goofy face Jake to start a Monday morning on the right foot. Thank you so much for that clip. :D

And I'm not surprised he's winning over a whole town, he could charm the pants off anybody.

Have a good day everyone!

Olympia
