Are You A Monty Python Fan?

I am, and especially a fan of Terry Jones. Jones wrote the troupe’s historical sketches, and after their break-up he continued to produce sketches of his own called Terry Jones: Medieval Lives, which are 8 half-hour episodes of what it was like to live in medieval England.

I am a fan (as you can tell by looking at my guild name), and while I love the chivalrous aspect of knighthood and once thought I might have liked to live in that era, once I saw the Jones series, I was no longer so sure.

This is the reason I live my “life” here on WoW, so I don’t get messed up with buboes (“Bring out yer dead!”) and the other symptoms and die within 4 days. If I do, there’s always a way for me to rez. Light Bless WoW!

Be that as it may, I still have romantic ideas about the period and enjoy the Jones series.

Interested? The 8 programs, each featuring a different aspect of living in the period can be found on YouTube.

I’ve been a Python fan for many years. The Dead Parrot sketch still cracks me up.
