Hitler; Man of the Year, Time Magazine, Jan. 2, 1939.  
Photographed at work, image-heavy. Most people react, understandably and sensibly, with horror when learning that Hitler was chosen by Time magazine as Man of the Year, 1939. I think the cover says it all, really.





















I only had about 10 minutes to spare when I took these. Alas, I did not get the name of the artist responsible for the cover. It has a messy, sketchy quality to it and is beautifully grotesque (very fitting, of course).

"No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!"
I can still remember the first episode I watched of Monty Python, because it had the Salad Days skit and at the age of nine, I didn't see how it supposed to be funny, because I absolutely horrified.

BBC America isn't like watching the actual BBC, as it's just endless blocks of BBC shows, with occasional all-day marathons of one specific show (usually Doctor Who). It's not bad, but I'd prefer the real thing.

It was definitely creepy! Some people had difficulty accepting the fact that an attractive, intelligent, seemingly normal man such as Ted Bundy was a serial killer. That article is an interesting contrast to the one to follow in 1988, when he was put to death; that article profiled the victims and their families and was focused more on them than on him.

I'll do what I can to assist all of you non-library-working types in the meantime ♥

If you love the films, then you'll love the show. When I'm bored and have the time, I youtube practically every Graham Chapman-centric Monty Python skit I can find. This is one of my favorites and pertains to my post:


I'd love to have the actual BBC (I was such an Anglophile when I was in my teens) and more foreign programming in general. One of our local channels runs a variety of foreign film and stage productions extremely early in the morning, but it's really not enough.

I suppose it's because Ted appeared to be so non-threatening and was charming to everyone he knew, but indeed, there is no specific look for a serial killer. Many of them seem rather harmless and unassuming by appearance alone.

And I'll do what I can to post interesting articles and such from various points in history! ♥

The internet is a wonderful place:

I'm enjoying sharing my discoveries from work here, so I'm not the only one who loves reading such things.
