Boing Boing post the other day about Carl Sagan's Cosmos being available to view on Hulu.
I loved this show as a kid. My mind just loved trying to grasp some of the wonders he showed us.
Hope you can get Hulu, wherever you are, and that you enjoy this.
Thanks to the fine folks @ Boing Boing.
What I read, write, watch, listen to or do between hot cups of the good stuff.

Sorry for the 'cut and paste' post. Had nothing original for the theme and having a cough/cold didn't help with thinking creatively.
I am sure there are much better takes on the theme at the site:
Theme Thursday ---> History
