A guy I was riding with yesterday has a FD that is made from the parts of a Camp FD and a Shimano FD. So where does that sit in the religion?

He's a witch. Burn him.

as you know, witches float, since they are made of wood. Throw the person in water, deep water, if they float, kill them as they are a witch. If they drownd, they are not a witch since they didn't float and are therefore OK. See Monty Python for exact parameters.

The key parameter is that witches weigh the same as a duck.
And I also think if you worship the wrong God, I don't wanna talk to you no more, you empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

Thats it, I'm launching a cow in your direction. And damn it, where did I put the number for the Black Knight.

We took my kids, 10 and 8 at the time, to Spamalot, the people around us were freaking out when my kids knew most every line and would start laughing at scenes as soon as the curtain went up. On a Saturday night when there is nothing on TV, what do they want to watch? Disney? Something from Dreamworks? NO they want to watch Monty Python.

Well, I can relate, my 10 yr old son's teacher didn't really like that he was telling girls on the playground that he would "wave his private parts at their aunties" ... but the HG is still a staple in our DVD player

This is just so classic ...

I nearly wet myself seeing it in Spamalot too

My poor nephew -- his name as Eric, and since he was a little boy I have been calling him a "half a bee" -- another really funny MP skit ...Eric is now a pretty prominent collegiate bike racer... https://www.usacycling.org/results/?compid=206020 I was teasing him in the fall after the road racing the season -- "imagine what he could do if he was a whole bee !"
Silly, I know. He's old enough now I thik he just thinks I'm nuts.

My son would yell "bring out your dead" when we'd bang a plate when he was 2. Both of my kids love Monty Python, and now are into watching Top Gear. BBC is a regular station here. If you want to twist them further, get them watching the Young Ones. I love Coupling, but it's still a little advanced for them.
