I was looking for vintage Sesame Street episodes last month for a virtual channel I'm building and I noticed that all of the Sesame Street/Electric Company episodes to be found anywhere on the web have a disclaimer that they are to be used "for adult entertainment only", not for education of children. Puzzled, I asked my wife about this (she had kids with her ex-husband in the 90s), and she explained that minor details such as the line atop a capital J are no longer used and can cause a child to flunk a test. My generation graduated knowing how to read and write; I see college juniors now who cannot write a paragraph. I think we have much bigger problems than the serif on a J to worry about.

I have officially retired from sucking at everything I do. Life is much easier now.
