when you're done, get the Monty Python collection (make sure you'll get to see the Spanish Inqusition!) and after that, if you feel really adventureous, go and rent the "Black Adder" ensemble.
and if that leaves you with the graving for even better british humor, get the whole "Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy" series on video ...

Favorite convo in a monty python movie:

You are indeed deprived. So tomorrow night you need to watch Monty Python's Holy Grail and the next night it's The Princess Bride.
I've seen The Princess Bride! Good, at least I get points for that one.
I'll make a mental note to check out Monty Python. A friend of mine used to quote some scene about witch trials. And I remember it made me laugh. But that's all I know. I'm hopeless at remembering movie lines.

yo mike -- If this were a political thread, I'd point out something like "republicans ain't really conservatives. (i.e. gi-normous deficit/etc) W's bunch is what are termed "neoConservatives" -- (and you need to say that down your nose if you are in the Pat Roberts-camp) -- or in any overly-fiscally-conservative camp for that matter."
Thank &deity. this isn't a political thread! Princess Bride -- rocks. Monty Python -- rocks. Can add one bit from Steve Martin (LA Story -- has moments of hysteria if you are CA based) and if you drag out ROS, you will commence mentioning Cheech&Chong.

No problem. Everyone can use a bit of puppy in their lives. I call it fuzz therapy (so does Calvin
)
In other news, it's nice to see so many of us are so well versed in Monty Python. I didn't expect it. I was introduced to it in one of my literature classes in middle school. My brother reinforced it, along with hitchhiker's guide. Awesome movies. We always did sketches of these in my drama classes. But that's about as far as my british humor goes. I don't get those "Are you being served?" and "Absolutely Fabulous" types. Trigger happy is funny though.

Premise: Busy? I just spent four hours burying the cat.
Conclusion: *Four hours* to bury a cat?
Premise: Yes - it wouldn't keep still.
Conclusion: Oh - it wasn't dead, then?
Premise: No, no - but it's not at all well, so as we were going to be on the safe side.
Conclusion: Quite right - you don't want to come back from Sorrento to a dead cat. It'd be so anticlimactic. Yes, kill it now, that's what I say. We're going to have to have our budgie put down.
Premise: Really - is it very old?
Conclusion: No, we just don't like it. We're going to take it to the vet tomorrow.
Premise: Tell me, how do they put budgies down, then?
Conclusion: Well, it's funny you should ask that, because I've just been reading a great big book about how to put your budgie down, and apparently you can either hit them with the book, or you can shoot them just there, just above the beak.
Premise: Just there? Well, well, well. 'Course, Mrs Essence flushed hers down the loo.
