jontyjago posted St Wilfrid's Catholic School's end of year video, a delightful shot-by-shot remake of Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice," featuring the school's headmaster, Mr Ferry. (Mr Ferry actually has pretty good rhythm, but the pun would brook no resistance)

I thought it would be interesting if mefites posted lists of what they plan to or have read, listened to, or watched this summer. I don't want to leave out people in the Southern Hemisphere, though, so feel free to post seasonal lists for whatever the season you may be experiencing!

ArbitraryAndCapricious asks Mefites to share their seasonal reading/ listening/ whatever list
