Monty Python's Holy Grail goes Broadway

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the 'tis-a-silly-place dept.

Sixyphe writes "First sighted on Yahoo News, it would seem that Eric Idle of Monty Python fame is working on a Broadway musical adaptation of everybody's favorite source of accurate medieval data, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The goal is 2005, and the working title is Spamelot (and not Spamalot, contrary to what an AP wire claims). And as a bonus to all you North-American Python fans, Eric Idle is soon to be touring in Canada and the US."

    my girlfriend, who was going to marry me, has left me. I have a $2300 engagement ring and nothing to do with it. I feel like I am never going to be happy again, because I will never be able to love anyone else like her.

    I hate my life and I want to die.

      you are probably lying, but if you aren't it's clear you have a value judgement problem. If you are under 30 years old you were stupid to get married. the older you marry, the statistically better your chances are of having a lasting marriage. THAT IS A ABSOLUTE FACT!!!!!!

      Sell your ring, or save it for your future wife.

      Before you kill yourself, wait a week and see if you still feel the same way. A little time can give a new perspective on things. And cheap sex won't solve anything.

      Why not ask someone close to your if they think you are a good marriage mate? Maybe your mother or better, if you have any female friends who won't lie. Maybe there is some quality you need to work on. Try looking at things from a girls point of view.

      Further, there must be a problem with you, with her, or with your judging of other people.
      If she is young/immature/didn't really want to get married then this is for the better. Lonely nights are way way better than a loveless marriage. Further, if this person doesn't want to marry you, obviously you need to get over her, because she has one huge flaw, she didn't really love you. If you get married in haste how can you really know? If you want to be together forever why not date for a year or for years and get close to someone before hopping in bed with them?

    Today at work, I had to take a shit so I went to the bathroom. After having a nice long dump, I went back to my desk and resumed my duties. Not long after, I smelled something nasty. I figured it was from the next cube and dismissed it. However it got worse and worse as the minutes passed and pretty soon other people were smelling it. Suddenly it dawned on me that I might be the source. I made some excuse about needing some more coffee and slipped back to the bathroom. I had a fucking huge skid mark on the back of my sack!!!! Has this ever happened to you??? Man, it was digusting.
