PBS

I've been trying to make my insatiable desire for television work to my advantage. By this I mean, predominantly, that maybe I can learn a little with my moving image fetish. To this end I have been watching a fair amount of PBS.

I've learned about the last two wives of King Henry (one was a slut and the other a religious zealot).
The boyfriend's latest Netflix was Ken Burns' documentary on Mark Twain. That guy was very funny ... even if his life was sad, his work was deep and all that ... funny.
We also watched a PBS documentary about yellow fever and its cure. I am feeling very learned. Come on, ask me something about one of these things ... I may know the answer.
