nagging thoughts

footfootfoot · 02-06-2006, 08:57 PM

years ago, I posted this thread, my first, I think. http://cellar.org/showthread.php?t=6858

In it I referred to the inch3 as elfin bedwe'er. Wolf proposed that I meant sir Bedevere, and I deferred to her considerable skill. As it turns out I just recently watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail and the name Elfin Bedwe'er was from the scene of the killer rabbit and Cleese's monolgue:

"To the north lies a cave, the cave of Caer of Bannoch, where, in mystic runes carved upon the very living rock the last words of Elfin Bedwe'er make plain the last resting place of the most Holy Grail. But! The entrance to the cave is guarded by a beast so foul, so cruel, that the bones of four and twenty men lay strewn about the entrance to the lair. So go no further unless you be men of valour, for death awaits with nasty, sharp, pointy teeth."

And thirty years later it is still one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Arguably one of cleese's most inspired perfomances.

Anyway, I am glad I finally resolved that nagging detail.

3foot, I just noticed your new signature. Are you saying you have been declawed?

Mrsfoot is trying that first. If he keeps this nonsense up, though, it's back to the vet to get fixed.

... or she'll just have her foot put down...

you don't know how funny that is. "I'm putting my foot down" is her most favored expression.

BTW, she doesn't know that my screen name is foot3.
