Morgan Freeman gave us quite a scare last week wrecking his car. But he's out of the hospital now and his prognosis is good, and if you're anything like me, you heaved a massive sigh of relief. You might recall that we here at the Bawdy Cloister awarded Mr. Freeman the first annual American Larrikin Award back in 2006 for his role as Easy Reader on The Electric Company.
