    To be fair: there are only about 10 years between the first and second and the second and third. The fourth one is more than 15 years later. I don't think he's aged that much faster since he hit his 60s.

    I am reading his faces.

    Picture 1: 'thank you God for making me so bloody great'

    Picture 2: 'I need the toilet'

    Picture 3: 'i'm so bored really'

    Picture 4: 'I'm a mardy old bastard, so let me through - now! What do you mean i need to be wearing a tie?! Let me in! GARRY! I order you to allow them to let me in!'

    There's a baby pic of him in the autobiography, and he has almost that same expression on his face, except he's not smiling. He had the eyes, even then. He and Graham were gorgeous babies! Eric's reminds me of my daughter's--as a toddler and little girl, her face just leapt off the picture.

    Here are some more faces of John Cleese, for those of us who just can't get enough:













    From 1974--I almost didn't recognize him!


    John shows off his new breast implants:




    Oh, the things we do when we don't feel like doing anything! :rolling:

    He looks like he's been kicked where it hurts on the top one.

    His Basil face is hilarious

    I don't like that last picture AT ALL. I don't know why--he looks so insincere, I guess. I looooove the look in the black and white photo.

    Oh, and I forgot to put in Tim the Enchanter, one of my favorite of his characters:

    Oh, he looks very cute in that pic... not insincere... He looks rather like a cheeky schoolboy, who fools his teachers...

    That Edmund Wells creep doesn't look anything like John, but he does a reasonable imitation of the voice.

    Oh that's sad. Alyce took so much of his money that he's been reduced to eating his sunglasses for nourishment.

    Paute! Es completemente ridiculo y no es de John Cleese, pero tengo una pregunta.... Cuando tienes un cuchillo y el no puede cortar bien, como se dice la palabra por este? "El es..." Puedes usar este palabra por cosas medicas? Como dolor? Como, "El dolor es..."
    • CommentAuthorzelda

    No,no! Sunglasses are a very tasty snack when eaten with a nice Chiante. Do not knock if if you have not tried it. I prefer Prada's, but Foster Grant's are nice too.

    What Cad? Liver? No, never tried that; just sunglasses. (strange, I hate liver).

    Prada is a bit rich for my taste. I prefer something outdoor-ish like Oakley.

    Pink, when a knife is not sharp (afilado, filoso in Latin America) it's said that it is desafilado. When you talk about pain sharp means penetrante, agudo.
    "El cuchillo no corta, está desafilado. ¡Así no se puede descuartizar a gusto, joder!"
    "Este dolor es muy agudo/penetrante, pero flemático y pragmático lo soporto. A base de drogas."

    Estuve haciendo un sondeo por Twitter. Y no pude encontrar una traducción para una palabra que se utilice para un cuchillo desafilado y expresar dolor.

    AH!!!! PERFECTO! CP, eres totalmente brillante. Gracias por tu ayuda!
    Y Paute, para ti tambien!
    Me gusta mucho que puedo hablar con usted ambos aqui!

    No, it's "I very much like that I can talk to you two here."
    Close though! I like being able to speak Spanish with native Spanish speakers. Especially Paute and CP. :)

    Well, it's my husband's computer, so he gets to decide whether it gets a new keyboard. It's not just a matter of hooking it up anymore. You actually have to download software and do massive updates--it took HOURS on our big Mac when we installed a new keyboard. I don't know if it would be as much of a problem on the PC, but Mr. Thing gets to decide, and he doesn't have a problem with the present one, so that's that.

    "The lousy n with a tilde" ... Nice.
    Well, it's called "eñe", and its name is pronounced just the way it's written, "eñe". The sound is "ñ". Obvious.
    (The closest phonetic equivalence to the Spanish Ñ is, as far as I remember, the Italian "gn" -> see "gnome". Or pizza. I love pizza :hungry:)
    • CommentAuthormrsthing
    • CommentTimeJul 12th 2010
     
    The Italian "gn" would be as in "gnocchi". When Americans say "gnome", we leave the g off altogether.

    Yes, yes, I forgot that you Americans pronounce "gnome" right the way you want.

    Sure, here the "gnocchi" are ñoquis.
    It´s a good example.

    Agree, agree.


    I have to correct myself for what I said in earlier posts. The word "desafilado" is not accepted by the RAE (Real Academia Española - Spanish Royal Academy... of the language), so, technically, even when any human being would perfectly understand what you mean, that word is WRONG, horribly WRONG. It simply does NOT exist. The correct word is ROMO, that means exactly DESAFILADO (BLUNT).

    Bad, bad CP, giving bad information to all those ignorant non-Spanish speakers! Bad!
