I like to look for them on Youtube or elsewhere and watch them now and again. It&#39;s educational, so even as a mode of procrastination it has a redeeming value, and the reenactors or frequent tours of ruins, etc. remind me of SMATH, in an off beat sort of way.<br /><br />Might I suggest Niall Ferguson&#39;s War of the World? There aren&#39;t the costumed actors a la HHP but it has it&#39;s moments. It&#39;s a far cry from your paper on race and Orkientalism I&#39;m sure, but there is an interesting racial thread therein. In any case I can only hope grainy footage has the relaxing effect on you that it has on me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP_X7cb-gwUCastor Rougehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17585248354973645075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481938.post-14527602959772834942009-06-10T09:08:58.999-04:002009-06-10T09:08:58.999-04:00Maybe since you&#39;ve acknowledged it here in writing, it&#39;ll be like patting a dog on the head and sending it on its way . . . far away.<br />Hugs and chocolate to you!Moon Torbetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06399951338716132359noreply@blogger.com
