First - the awesome...
Long before the bat suit was made of hard rubber and had nipples, Adam West was wearing tights and fighting evil as arguably the most awesome super hero of all time. That's right, you remember - KA-POW! BLAM! BIFF!! Batman at his daytime TV finest.
Today we celebrate the birth of the original Batman. To commemorate this momentous occasion I recommend watching the original Batman: The Movie (available from Amazon). The film contains classic moments such as the infamous Shark Repellent Bat Spray scene.
While you enjoy watching this cinematic masterpiece, make sure you also have on hand a bowl of the particularly revolting: butterscotch pudding. Why? Because the former super hero turned New England mayor shares a birthday with National Butterscotch Pudding Day!
Personally I think that butterscotch pudding would work well as a shark repellent, as any kind of repellent really - but I hear that some people actually do enjoy the flavor of butterscotch and if anything goes down easily it's pudding. So today kick back, relax, and enjoy two of life's eye-of-the-beholder treasures.
Speaking of treasures, here is a brief representation of some of the relevant merchandise that can be found on Etsy:
