Dr. Hoo.

Love the BBC?
Love those wacky Saxons?
You can't get much better than this series.

A History of the World in 100 0bjects.

It's 15 minutes that will grow your brain. It also features Seamus Heaney on Beowulf. Heaney has done easily the best translation on the work. Shivery good stuff.

I've been in a more reading, less painting phase. So not much right now to show for my efforts. I have almost finished Piggott's work on Pre-Historic India. (whew..)

Pictures and other stuff related to Samurai Night Fever II: Wrath of the Khans will be next up.

Until then,
