Just read this week’s copy of the Onion (sorry, hard copy, no link). Starting on Page 7 is an essay by some guy discussing how he is going to impress a coffee shop waitress with his encyclopedic repertoire of material from the Holy Grail.
"Perchance, after all these months, she will finally ask what my name is, and I will be able to come back with, ‘[SUPPLY THE LINE YOURSELVES, ALL YOU MP GEEKS].’ I would then laugh and tell my fair Aimee that, joking aside, I’m really called Larry. In that moment, I will have won her.
After all, what more could a fetching lass want than to be wooed with perfectly memorized dialogue from the funniest film ever made?"
hahahahahahaha! Dinsdale, if you still want to have a loopy liquid lunch in the Loop sometime I’ll match you line for line. We can even expand into Life of Brian.
“All I said was that that halibut was good enough for Jehovah!”
Oh maggie - read the end of the article. Don’t tell me you are one of the “all-too-common breed of philistine who actually prefers Life of Brian to the obviously superior Grail.”
I assumed we were still on for next Friday. Figgered I’d post something next week. Or, if you would prefer a less ETOH-filled weekend, how bout the 27th?
The 27th might work better. From what Val tells me about these gatherings I should be close to over my hangover by then. I’m down here every day, so am flexible!
