Re: 3 Families of Humans and the Bible
My ultimate nerd confession:
In the days before home VCRs became ordinary I took my dad's reel-to-reel tape recorder, placed the mic by the TV speaker and recorded Monty Python and the Holy Grail when it was broadcast on PBS. I then took the tape and my dad's typewriter and transcribed the movie, as much as I could make out anyway given my then limited knowledge of English slang and accents. To this day I know when someone mis-quotes any passage, but I don't correct them, my ultimate nerd moment was back when I was 12 and I don't need to compound it by being one of "those" people.

One was from the opening scene where they are taking out the dead. (He's mostly dead!)
Sigh+∆... you're still confused. IIRC, the opening scene. (Now we see the violence inherent etc.!)
The other is the fight between Arthur and the Black Knight.

Why would a Superman need a bicycle? Or busses, for that matter? Can't they just fly wherever they need to go?

Usually when those Python dudes get dressed up like women, they look a little unappealing, but that one in the Milkman sketch was hot!

Re: 3 Families of Humans and the Bible
I am seriously worried about you Bren.
I'm not dead yet.

Now I'm worried.
Palin was the milkman. Carol Cleveland (the '6th Python') was the babe.
I hope you were spoofing us.

Great, now after that whole big fuss, I have to call back all my family members and tell them it was just a false alarm about me being gay.

Yep. Confirmed by All the Words, Volume 1. If it were Palin, the prosthetic work would have been most commendable. But it wasn't, so it's not.

No you probably aren't. You are certifiable though.
