Now, I'm relaxing (which looks remarkably like procrastinating to the untrained eye). I'm lying in bed today, nursing my weary legs, and watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I loved this bit:
And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it."What has happened to comedy? These men were like comedic gods.
One more thing, before I go. I got the following word verification the other day:
You may wonder why this is so amusing. It isn't, after all, a swear word. The reason is that I am probably the most jumpy, nervous person I know. "Grboo" is a word so often shouted at me to elicit a jumpy-screamy-petrified reaction by my friends and family. Sometimes they do it on purpose. Other times they do nothing particularly scary and it scares the shit out of me. So that's why I had a laugh at it.Going now.
Night.
