What Ho, What Ho, What Ho?

Yesterday was my birthday so I was out and about and posting zilch...what's better than a birthday? Getting up at 6:20am the next morning to make it to class...

Birthday present I am most excited about: The Complete Jeeves & Wooster...If you only know Hugh Laurie from his interesting American accent in House or even The Black Adder series, you must see this Masterpiece Theatre series and his tour de force performance of Bertie Wooster...

A relevant quote from the series:

Bertie: "It's about time some publicly-spirited person told you where to get off. The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you've succeeded in convincing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you're someone. You hear them shouting "Hail, Spode!" and you imagine it's the voice of the people. That is where you make your bloomer. What the voice of the people is actually saying is, "Look at that frightful ass Spode swanking about in footer bags! Did you ever in your life see such a perfect perisher?"
