Peter-

"Forgive me, father, for I have sinned...it has been years since my last confession...and in future I shall send links to 'other' content via private message...what shall I do for penance?"

Too much wine yesterday, head's still spinning!

Hope your Christmas was merry,

Nothing to forgive TC and I hope your head's improving! Only moved this here to save you from doing penance!

[TiberiaClaudia]

Thanks!

Peter-

I do believe I love you now..!
My head would be OK save for the glare across the snowtop...

Happy New Year!

" ARTHUR: I am. And this my trusty servant Patsy.
We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court of Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master.
GUARD #1: What, ridden on a horse?
ARTHUR: Yes!
GUARD #1: You're using coconuts!
ARTHUR: What?
GUARD #1: You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together.
ARTHUR: So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercea, through-
GUARD #1: Where'd you get the coconut?
ARTHUR: We found them.
GUARD #1: Found them? In Mercea? The coconut's tropical!
ARTHUR: What do you mean?
GUARD #1: Well, this is a temperate zone.
ARTHUR: The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plumber may seek warmer climes in winter yet these are not strangers to our land.
GUARD #1: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
ARTHUR: Not at all, they could be carried.
GUARD #1: What -- a swallow carrying a coconut?
ARTHUR: It could grip it by the husk!
GUARD #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a 1 pound coconut!
ARTHUR: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here."

PDG-The above excerpt should contain enough coconut without causing too much eye strain...
I get the month of September for the 2008 forum calendar cos that's my birth month!

I certainly didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!

It's not dead yet.

It's not dead yet.

It is, you know. It has ceased to be.

As this is a Monty Python forum, has anyone seen the episode where Beethoven is trying to write the Fifth symphony? He has the three Gs but keeps getting the E flat wrong because his wife keeps annoying him with a vacuum cleaner while a crow perched on his piano keeps cawing at him. Beethoven (played by John Cleese) finally shoots the crow and gets the elusive fourth note of his symphony.
I hasten to add that this sketch was very tastefully done.

Okay, Jenn. My camera's all set up - when are coming 'round for the photoshoot?

Maybe the best thing Cleese has done, Michael! More insane than Fawlty Towers. I think Beethoven would have approved!

As soon as I can locate someone willing to puchase my air fare across the pond!

The Python sketch is more factually endorsable than Immortal Beloved.

Ok, here you guys go. The above were taken in Florida in October, at St. Augustine and in Orlando, to be precise. St. Augustine is a beautiful, old, and heavily Spanish-influenced city whose charm I adored the second I set foot inside its boundaries. It is also the oldest city in the United States, where Ponce De Leon landed in the 1500's.

The astronaut in the one photo is Jon McBride. I had the pleasure of speaking with him personally while visiting the NASA grounds. I was there the week before the shuttle launch and got to see the shuttle on the launchpad!

Peter, am I breaking any rules with these?? They aren't "Beethoven related," after all, tho they are not any of them the one to which I was joking over earlier

Happy Christmas everyone!!

A Compromising "TC"

Bloody hell! This is why I joined this forum! Beethoven? Who he? Tiberia Claudia ... thank you for the unexpected Xmas present. Happy New Year to you, as well.

Coconuts

My dear PDG, if you would just stop playing with your onions and stomping on rakes for a moment you might well spy those elusive coconuts you have been searching for. Please forgive any lack of my usual eruditeness, this time it's not claret, but a nicely chilled Edelzwicker (from Alsace).

[Quijote]

And TC - will you marry me? Please.

[TiberiaClaudia]

I raise my glass of Reisling in your general direction and smile sweetly, but I must confess that I'm already wedded to a handsome and stubborn Sicilian gentleman...

Kisses anyhow,

TC
