And When She's Not Reading Cicero
No, it's not all Cicero, Isocrates and Melville here.
My parents had never seen Hugh Laurie outside of House, M.D. Jeff had wished to see "A Bit of Fry and Laurie" with just the funny bits, and not the dud sketches. So, here you go, for those of you who could use a laugh: My YouTube Links.
They're mostly Fry and Laurie, with some Blackadder, and a few funny non-Hugh Laurie videos. I'm not finished. It takes time to comb YouTube for all the funny links, but gosh darn it, I'll make the sacrifice. (Admittedly, some of the Fry and Laurie clips were deemed funny to me at 2 am after consuming alcohol.) My favorites are probably "A Discussion of Language," "Shakespeare Master Class," the one labeled "Early Hugh Laurie" (which is a Blackadder clip), "March of the Penguins" and "Mom My Ride."

Um, I'm feeling like a bit of a dumbass. :) I did not realize that the dude from house was the dude from Blackadder. Which is, I suppose, what I get for normally not paying any attention to the names of actors.
I think we're going to have to incorporate Blackadder into our homeschool history lessons. Truly.

Exactly. Why would you? I've known his name for a good long time, otherwise it would be really hard to tell.
We just finished using Blackadder for history. Heh heh. Actually, the fourth season, which I had never watched through before, can open up some nice discussions on WWI. Honest.

I'm glad you put the Laundry Mission Impossible Whose Line on your list - it's probably my most favorite WL game ever! :)
