    OOO! OOO! I *know* that one! I *know* "Take Me On"!!! :boogie: I even used to like it!

    Cool vids, Gungas! I really liked both of them.
  2.  
    Haha the literal version... This one is also hilarious in my opinion, while we're at it



    And please don't mention Dr. Parnassus, I'll probably have to wait a YEAR for it to come out in this hellhole... I've been waiting so long... That and Alice are my next cinematic goals. Also, this:

    The Men Who Stare At Goats

    Aaaaand this

    A Serious Man

    (New Coen brothers...)


    God so many good films, that are never going to get to theaters here... I have to get out of here

    Wonderful! Everything is wonderful! Though since it's not yours, Gungas, I'll say that I could think of better ways to use that song with John's photos and clips. I just can't do it.

    It would be funnier to use clips of him in drag, for one thing. Lends a whole new meaning to the word "womanizer".

    And from what I've heard (he lived in CT, but not near me), he was an incredibly nice person who invested a lot of himself in local theater productions and instructing new actors. Not to mention his organic food business, part of the profits of which went to charity. I never heard anyone say a mean word about him.

    "Michael Winner found this snap under the floor mat of his Bentley so he sent it along for me to share with you. Here I am learning a new song. If I remember correctly, it went something like:

    Smoke On The Water. A Fire In the sky.

    Mesmerizing. Just...utterly....mesmerizing. Funnily enough, it was originally written just round the corner."

    Fan the correct spelling is Spandau Ballet, had the hots for Tony as a little girl!

    Oh, btw - Spandau is a suburb/part of Berlin. To give out an useless piece of information.

    Just spend half an hour watching those literal video versions - could somebody do this with the Knights of the Round Table song from Holy Grail Song, please - no wait! It is already literal...

    Getting back to Mrs. Thing desire to keep to the code, er, topic of this thread -
    I was asking his wholeniness at the open mike section of the show - if it was insecurity that made him marrying the psychoanalystica - and if he would consider sueing her for professional misconduct... Taking advantage of him, being unethical... Unfortunately, I was petrified after asking this, and my auditory system took a holiday break - so I have NO FUCKING IDEA what his answer was - anybody here having him seen in geriatric Yountville? HELP overcoming my amnesia? Please? And - the show is great. Surprise Surprise.

    Unfortunately video work is extremely time consuming but I agree with your conclusion.


    RE: MsFannytwinkle-Butt - "...Look for the blonde American, Mr. Cleese! Marry her! Be my nephew-in-law! How cool!"

    jackcheese - "Very good indeed."

    ...............:rolling:


    RE: doc.universal"... so I have NO FUCKING IDEA what his answer was.

    Perhaps....Henri Bergson??!

  11.  
    I think Jack Cheese was referring to the song "True" as very good.

    However, it could be about marrying my niece. That would be wonderful and the family would be grateful. She's quite gorgeous but unfortunately very, very smart.
    Men feel intimidated although she is as sweet a person as you'll ever find. Became a medical doctor and then went on to become a psychiatrist. Natural blonde. 30's. in New England, but a Southern Belle. With a New England University hospital. She would kill me for talking about her on a forum. She attracts tons of guys but she doesn't have time because all she does is work, work, work. She's very, very serious about her career. Very caring about her patients. But has a great sense of humor, because after all, she came out of my family. I don't know if she's still talking to me after the last prank I pulled on her.

    Oh, please do find her and marry her, Mr. Cleese! She's much nicer than other blondes you've known.

    Oh - COME ON! That is soooo old news:


    Michael Miles: Jolly good. Well your first question for the blow on the head this evening is: What great opponent of Cartesian dualism resists the reduction of psychological phenomena to physical states?
    Woman: I don't know that!
    Michael Miles: Well, have a guess.
    Woman: Henri Bergson.
    Michael Miles: Is the correct answer!
    Woman: Ooh, that was lucky. I never even heard of him.
    Michael Miles: Jolly good.
    Woman: I don't like darkies.

    Wikipedia word count:
    Bergson = 6772
    Cheese = 6355

    BERGSON WINS!

    you can do better than that.

    And GasDinGunDin - the Star Trek reference is soo heart-warming. Have to admit, Spock was another crush of my teenager years - no offense, cheese was more intimate, if I remember correctly.:shamed:

    Who fucking cares?

    NOT FUCKING ME!

    I still like you best, though. :wink:
  16.  
    Ms. Butt, sorry to hear your distress, I suggest alternative phrases to emphasize the severity of your distress:

    fuck (noun)
    (no meaning) Term can be used with the definite article as a pure expletive in sentence initial position: 'What the fuck are you doing, Mary?' 'The fuck you say!' It can also be used with the definite article: 'Like fuck I'm going to date Mary tonight!'
    the act of fucking' (roughly) Synonymous with 'piece of ass.' 'John had a hot fuck last night.'
    fuck (verb, intransitive)
    have intercourse See fuck (transitive). Here, it must have a conjoined subject: John and Mary are fucking.
    fuck (verb, transitive)
    to have intercourse with someone. This word was once considered the most unacceptable word in English. In the last twenty years it has become more acceptable in various contexts. Still not acceptable in parlour room contexts, in school, etc. Though banned on American TV it can be heard on Canadian TV and radio in certain limited cases.
    fuck around (verb, intransitive)
    do nothing imporant or nothing at all. "John's just fucking around today."

    go away Usually used as a command in an uncomplementary sense: "Fuck off, asshole!"
    fuck oneself (verb phrase)

    fuck up (verb, transitive)
    (1) to make a mess out of something, (2) to cause someone to become psychologically unstable. See fuck up (intransitive). (1) "John really fucked his assignment up." (2) "John's parents really fucked him up."
    fucked (past tense of fuck), (passive participle)
    (1) to be psychologically maladjusted, (2) to be a mess (of situations and certain objects) Derived from and generally synonymous with 'fuck up'. "John is really fucked." "John's project is fucked beyond hope."
    fucked up (passive participle)
    (1) to be psychologically maladjusted, (2) to be a mess (of situations and certain objects) See 'fuck up'.
    to be using larger doses of drugs than normal such as alcohol or acid Used in the drug community for people who are tripping hard.
    fucker (noun)

    Sorry Ms. Fannytwinklebutt, but with my initial statement regarding 'Smoke On The Water' I was being ironic since jackcheese has probably never heard of 'Smoke On The Water'. Camilla pointed out to us eons ago that he was illiterate when it came to modern music - he didn't know who Mick Jagger was.

    You wouldn't know this unless you'd been around awhile. I apologize if I have caused you any distress. But, as I said, we may never know what was meant.

    If it makes you feel any better, I've just now had to use some discount tin foil that has the thickness of gold leaf to line the baking pan and my steak dinner will most probably be ruined and I will probably consume 1000% of the normal daily recommended intake of aluminum.

    RE: Valetudinaria - Amazing how, today, Dick doesn't look like he's aged a bit and Groucho is a mere skeleton of himself.






    Freddy Cleese

    And in the performance, he referred to his short, but intense Broadway career, the "Half A Sixpence" performance - that he had to mime, because he could not sing -
    but - what do you think - Oliver Cromwell from "Python Sings" is pretty good, right?

    Lord,help me.

    Do I sound like I am distressed? LOL! You do not know me.

    Why do you think I put all those hahas at the end of that post?

    Okay, so he likes classical music. He didn't have to study it like I did at the university or he'd fucking hate it.

    Okay, I like some of it.

    But ROCK RULES.

    I can see now that I really do not want my niece to marry him, not with this classical music blight of his....

    John Cleese on wine, chocolate and the Pythons

    by Kerry Lengel - Nov. 14, 2009 05:38 PM
    The Arizona Republic

    Q: You've played so many characters. Any you didn't care for?

    A: I didn't enjoy doing "Harry Potter" at all. It's special-effects acting, which is the worst kind of acting because even the director doesn't know if you're doing it right. And special-effects directors have been living in caves and have no idea how to communicate to human beings. They would ask, "Can you look surprised?" Then, "Can you look surprised at half speed?" And really, have you ever tried to raise your eyebrows slowly?

    http://www.azcentral.com/thingstodo/stage/articles/2009/11/14/20091114qacleese1115.html


    Ventura County Star, Calif., Brett Johnson column

    This is how Cleese spent his 70th birthday on Oct. 27: He fielded calls from well-wishers at his Santa Barbara cottage, then worked with his yoga instructor "who came around this morning trying to make me feel like I'm not 70 -- she didn't succeed -- and talked to me about how it's better to live simply." He spent 10 minutes "trying to figure out which pills I have to take. That's the thing about getting old, there's so much more ... equipment." He then jumped in his car and did this interview en route to a meeting, to map out an East Coast tour next spring, at his agent's office in Los Angeles, where he was to be honored with a birthday party that night.
