Usually, I just post memes. But this past Saturday, the very funny Mr. #TomLehrer passed away at the age of 97. He was a composer, singer, comedian, mathematician, teacher-- and inventor of the Jello Shot. He also wrote educational songs for childrens TV, such as for #TheElectricCompany and #SchoolhouseRock .

So this week, one #HootinTootinTuesday includes a link to a compilation of some of his catchiest and most hilarious music.

I've long been a fan of Tom Lehrer's Elements Song, but somehow had never heard his Aristotle version until just now. I nearly giggled like a twat in the office.
