Any Monty Python fans?

[Passepartout]

Do any of you love the UK comedy troupbe Monty Python?
As I watched Flying Circus as a fourteen-year old and I am now thirty-five years old! Almost have their FC episodes!
As they set the bar for comedy skits and troupes in general.
They are an original!

The Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies.

A true classic. "Bring out your dead....bring out your dead...."

And now, for something completely different...

The most brilliant segue ever...

A few years back, I saw a Monty Python tribute that HBO put together, featuring many of their most famous sketches... at the end, the living members of the troupe came out, carrying an urn that supposedly contained Graham Chapman's ashes... some lady came out and presented them with an award, and John Cleese stepped forward to give an acceptance speech... I can't quote it directly, but it went something like this:

"We deeply appreciate this award; I have in recent days thought about how much an award like this would have meant back when we were just getting started, struggling to find an audience. But there was nothing.

Not a ****ing thing. And now, we're all rich and famous, and you're all creaming your jeans trying to get next to us."

At which point one of the other Pythons gently led him away from the microphone (and I'm crying, I'm laughing so hard), while one of the other Pythons lifts the lid on the "Chapman urn", drops the medal into it, and a puff of ashes emits from it...

It was the greatest acceptance speech I ever heard...

I fart in your general direction; your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries...

Now, go away, or I shall taunt you a second time...

Are you trying to tell me coconuts migrate?

Whenever I on the Zone and I post one of these ( ), this skit is usually the first thing that comes to mind.
