It's the Arts

This post isn't really about anything in particular. I just wanted to have an excuse to share how much I enjoyed an episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus I recently watched with my dad. I enjoyed the skit about a certain little known composer in particular. His name was...

Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern-schplenden-schlitter-crasscrenbon-
fried-digger-dingle-dangle-dongle-dungle-burstein-von-knacker-
thrasher-apple-banger-horowitz-ticolensic-grander-knotty-spelltinkle-
grandlich-grumblemeyer-spelterwasser-kurstlich-himbleeisen-
bahnwagen-gutenabend-bitte-ein-nurnburger-bratwustle-gernspurten-
mitz-weimache-luber-hundsfut-gumberaber-shonedanker-kalbsfleisch-
mittler-aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.

It is now my goal, nay, my duty to memorize this name. Let's all do our best!

P.S. I watched two more episodes of Scrapped Princess and I'm thinking Shannon kicks some major ass. Also, upon rewatching some fifth season Babylon 5 episodes, I've realized that Delenn really is a heartless bitch to Lennier. She totally teases him. Bad Delenn! No...no, please...don't make the ugly face!!! But now I can't decide...should I call her Delenn or Russeau? Ah, that's easy. She'll always be Delenn, even when she's playing Russeau. "You have three choices. Run. Hide. Or Die," sounds an awful lot like, "Only one human captain has ever survived battle with a Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else."

You gotta love that quote from Delenn! "Be somewhere else!"

BTW, this is a fabulous way to communiciate. :) Why didn't we think of it sooner?

Although my heart is with Lost, she will be Delenn forever.

(That's not to say I haven't enjoyed B5. I'm looking forward to finally seeing how this saga ends.)

And poor Lennier. She's a heart stealer in B5, a baby stealer in Lost.

Hmmm... What if Russeau is actually Delenn, gone back in time. She is an alien... What if all of this relates back to the Minbari?

Brandi: I agree. This is definitely the way to keep up with each other. It's so much easier than email because...I actually do it.

Callowqueen: I think it's all a big conspiracy to turn us all into aliens. Yeah.
