Re:Possible use
This might be a brilliant classical reference, except that since both Hektor and Astyanax died at the end of the Trojan wars...
But for those that were unaware- it is a brilliant, er... that is, at least marginally luminant, Monty Python reference.
Right now, write it a hundred times! -

Monty Python and the Holy Grail adaptation by SCO
They just want to tell IBM it's much cheaper to buy SCO right away. $3 billion is enough to send the message, but I don't think it will work. IBM is in this for the long run. I believe IBM will be the one to win the lawsuit because they aren't the ones doing the talking.
SCO is behaving like the Black Knight in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". He had his arms and legs cut off and he still challenged King Arthur saying "I'll bite your legs off!".

e ne-04.htmlGreat movie. Bad adaptation by SCO. And they should be sued for copyright infringement.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
This whole FiaSCO has me both entertained and worried. Common sense suggests that SCO is about to become a greasy spot on the bottom of IBM's shoes. However, in the US, common sense is barred from court rooms, and SCO could turn out to be a bigger thorn than anyone imagined.
But... I can't help being reminded of Monty Python and the Holy Grail... where SCO is playing the role of the Black Knight.

Re:Artificial Intelligence, Husserl and other writ
If you like that you might want to go on to read some Martin Heidegger.
Ah, Heidegger...
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
(Note that they said "take you under the table" when memory says it's obviously "drink"...)
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could drink you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Schopenhauer and Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietszche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates himself was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato they say could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his Dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am !"
Yes Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed.

Re:it must be asked

Re:This just in...
I'm really going to miss Baghdad Bob's enthusiam and nightly broadcasts of how Iraqi forces were kicking our coalition asses.
Some folks compare the situation to the scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail with the Black Knight

"I think we should tax people who stand in water! " - Mr. Gumby
Oh, that's only half the joke -- the other half is when he looks down to notice that he's standing in water himself! :^) -
Re:Dennis Moore, Dennis Moore...
For those who don't get it: Monty Python
I was going to post it myself, but Requiem beat me to it. -
no thank you

might end up like that witch trial in monty python's quest for the holy grail... /mindw@rp -

All things foul and nasty
Monthy python wrote a song about it.
Its basically about the fact that is god created everything, he also purpusefully created siphillis and ugly people...

Obligatory Python quoteKeeping in line with the Humor icon:
- I mean, if I went 'round saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
- Shut up, will you? Shut up!
- Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system.
- Shut up!
- Oh! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
For more of this scene as well as the rest of the movie, visit: http://www.stone-dead.asn.au/movies/holy-grail/. Note the TLD... how pertinent. -
Finest Code in These IslandsThen finally, he built a really big one, and that burned down, fell over, and sank into the swamp.
Finally? No:
but the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands.
OK, so it was the fifth or sixth one
... but it's still the finest code in these islands! -

Re:well.It's really desperate of you gay bashers to cite reproduction as an argument against us queers.
Gee, relax guy, that's a quote from Monty Python, 22, Bruces
--
Fourth Bruce: No. Right, I just want to remind you of the faculty rules: Rule One!
Everybruce: No Poofters!
Fourth Bruce: Rule Two, no member of the faculty is to maltreat the Abbos in any way at all -- if there's anybody watching. Rule Three?
Everybruce: No Poofters!!
Fourth Bruce: Rule Four, now this term, I don't want to catch anybody not drinking. Rule Five,
Everybruce: No Poofters!
Fourth Bruce: Rule Six, there is NO
... Rule Six. Rule Seven,Everybruce: No Poofters!!
Fourth Bruce: Right, that concludes the readin' of the rules, Bruce.

A PREMIUM BRAND domain name??? Are you joking??
Oh this has to be a joke!
It's like selling deluxe air or executive toilet paper! It'd piss me off if it wasn't for the fact that the dorks who get rooked by this scheme are exactly the kinds of people who deserve it. Probably the same kinds of idiots who buy executive parachutes, for chrissakes.
...and, is it just me or does this whole scam remind you of the executive intro to Monty Python's instant record collection?

Re:Argument or counterargument?
Church Police: Oh, Lord, we beseech thee, tell us who croaked the Bishop of Leicester.
[A clap of thunder. Then a giant Gilliam-style hand appears from the sky, accompanied by angelic chanting, and points to the husband.]
God: The one in the braces, he done it.
[More angelic chanting as the hand returns whence it came.]
Husband: It's a fair cop, but society is to blame.
Detective-Parson: Right, we'll arrest them instead!
Church Policeman: Come on, you! Are you in society? Are you in society?

The semi-definitive post about Monty Python
Monty Python is a comedy troupe which was behind classics such as Monty Python and the Holy Grail. They also had a late sixties-early seveties tv show called Monty Python's Flying Circus. They are outragously funny but in an absurd way. There are transcripts of all the flying circus skits, and some of the movies at Stone Dead Productions They also have a lot of great information and facts about Monty Python. Monty Python is not to be confused with The Full Monty which is an entirely different thing aside from the fact they're both English and both have "Monty" in the title.

This is Jesse Berst we're talking about!
For an explanation of this phenomenon have a look at this advertisement from a Monty Python book.
