And to think, people tell me they’re impressed that I can sing the 50 states (and also the state capitals) alphabetically. That skill doesn’t hold a candle to this video…
Side-note: Earlier this week as I got my flu vaccination, a nurse said I looked like Harry Potter, just a bit more grown-up. I said I can’t recall being compared to Daniel Radcliffe in the past, although I do have a scar in the right spot on my forehead (As far as I know it wasn’t from Lord Voldemort, but from stumbling into a department store display table’s edge when I was 1, unless my parents were covering for something). I figure the US Army uniform I wear, at a minimum, will make future Harry Potter comparisons unlikely.
Marvellous – someone under 50 knows about Tom Lehrer!
I play one or two of his songs to my students sometimes when I feel my tutorials are getting boring.
we listened to that in science class haha
He is the very model of a modern Major-General.
He’s got Lehrer’s history wrong though; Lehrer trained as a mathematician, not a scientist. And of course no one sings it like Tom Lehrer.
Mathematicians aren’t scientists? They must get by without proving things. Yeah. But, er …
Lehrer as I recall was a maths professor at Harvard. And a brilliant entertainer. With a piano, which Daniel Radcliffe didn’t have.
Good, but not as good as Jason Carter’s version in an episode of Babylon 5.
Lehrer was indeed a mathematician and a pianist. He not only sang but played the music he sang to. I still have this album somewhere and a record player to play it on!
Harry Potter books are great, and I’m not saying that just because I’m a freshman in high school, I really think that JK Rwoling is a genius, and I can’t believe how amazing the books are. It’s not for geeks, and who ever says that doesn’t have good taste.

it’s the characters and stories. Harry Potter isn’t a story about witch craft it’s a story about a young boy trying to find his way in the world. There are elements which all kids and even adults can relate to.

Harry Potter is a person’s character is a young boy wizard who is known throughout the world, I think the story he always extends to incredible life’s journey.
