OMG! Ralph Archbold, who plays Ben Franklin, is getting married to Linda Wilde, who plays Betsy Ross. Ol’ Franklin not a swinging bachelor? I guess he’s deviating from the character a bit, but overall this is completely awesome.

The wedding is on July 3 and the post-ceremony reception is at City Tavern. Naturally.

    Well, Ben Franklin was married, so I think “swinging married guy” or, if post-1774, “swinging widower” is a more apt description.

    When I lived in Philly I used to see him in Super Fresh. I asked him, “Don’t you have a farm?” and he hit me with a frozen turkey.
