Scooter singing “Moves Like Jagger” is a little disturbing…but I think the penguins save it.

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things.

—Douglas Adams

Just found a new show on Hulu: The Supersizers Go…

In The Supersizers Go…, British restaurant critic, Giles Coren, and comedienne, Sue Perkins, eat their way through British history. From Roman times to the French Revolution to the Great War, Giles and Sue eat, live and play for a full week exclusively the way people did back then. Before and after each era of eating, they pay a visit to a doctor to see how there are affected by their new diets.

So far I’ve only watched the first episode “Wartime” which looks at WWII rationing and lifestyle on the home front.  It’s both funny and educational  Next up: the Restoration period (1660s).

PS: I love Hulu..so much available for free (there are commercials, but there are on TV too!).  Plus where else would I ever seen the 1970’s miniseries Little Women in which William Shatner plays Professor Bhaer with an painful German accent?

Happy Pi Day!
