Right now, on the national TV channel's children's programme they show how to make a self portrait from hare's droppings (and cardboard, paint and some wool roving).
Current Music:The City Waits: "The Saint Turn'd Sinner"
My theory of preference is that all those programs were part of a long term project to improve our chances of fighting off the Russians when they invaded. They wanted a population that would think that the hardship of fighting a war against a numerically superior better equipped enemy was no big deal, that saw deprivation as comforting. So mentally toughened that torture would be a waste of time, and that would view horrible POW-camps in Siberia as rest homes for the elderly.
The alternate explanations are worse, since they mostly involve the Elder Gods running a national TV channel, or in some cases there being pot dispensers in the staff cafeteria.
This is a new programme; you're supposed to do crafty things from stuff you find in nature. Since I watch quite a lot of children's programmes now I must say that those of our childhood were much better. Not than all of them, but there's nothing like the genius of Staffan Westerberg, or "Från A till Ö", or "Kapten Zoom", or "dr. Krall". Luckily we have both "Från A till Ö" and "Vilse i Pannkakan" on DVD.
