For example, I wake with pain in my hips and thighs virtually every morning. A few minutes ago, I was wondering if my mattress could be the cause, and I immediately thought of putting a shopping bag over my head.
You?
Sidney Poitier is on a bus in the first scene, surrounded by pepperpots exactly as depicted by Python? One of them appears later in the film, too, as the proprietor of a produce stand. I swear the lads could've gotten the idea just from those scenes, though they most likely experienced pepperpots IRL.
In some thread that had nothing to do with Python (or F E.E.B L.E.) a couple of days ago, somebody mentioned Burma, and it took all my mental and emotional energy to not reply with... well, you know.
There've gotta be hundreds of such words. What are some that set your brain off?
I don't know British law of some 55 years ago about getting permits to film in public, but it's always felt to me "Climbing the North Face of the Uxbridge Road" was done on the fly, as it were. The beginning of "olympic Hide and Seek Competition," when T.J. hides his eyes and counts to a thousand in Portuguese, feels that way, too.

...on all forms of kratom have done/are doing so because a city council member read or heard some poorly written story about a health crisis or death "caused" by kratom.
We need to go to city council meetings, etc., and ask members what prompted the ban or talk of one. If they reply "So-and-so died after taking it," we should ask how they know it was the kratom alone. If they cite "Reefer Madness journalism," we should ask where they read/heard this and whom these stories cited other than a family member and a Google search on kratom. And we need to do likewise with the news media that publish such stories.
I swear this entire county is built on top of a giant ant colony or something.
Does anyone have pest control recommendations or chemical suggestions for whatever kind of ant is in the picture? Really struggling here.
"The sketch constitutes a loose pastiche of the Richardson gang and the Kray twins, notorious gangsters from the East End of London in the 1950s and 1960s, and the latter's investigationby Nipper Read.[1][2]"
My brother-in-law was here yesterday. He and my sister are the property owners, and he often comes down when my partner is away (she's a musician/audio engineer) to do whatever he thinks needs doing.
Yesterday morning, our cat wasn't at all well. I told this to my BIL, and he agreed, but said little else. (I don't drive because of poor vision.) She was no better around five o' clock, so I brought it up with him again, wanting desperately to take her to the emergency veterinarian. Again, he just said, "It's her time; it's part of life" (she's 10), and went back to what he was doing. It was as if he'd said, "Oh, well. Just let her die."
So, I took her to the vet via Uber. After blood work, and being told the approximate cost of a transfusion and additional treatment, I had no choice but to let them put her down. She died in my arms, wrapped in a blanket, as I cried my eyes out and told her I love her.
Anyway, I'm still shocked over my BIL's lack of empathy, not only for Moggie but for my feelings and worry about her. He's 72 and has never had an animal companion, so it's understandable as far as that goes. But, his complete lack of caring for Moggie's suffering and my feelings is just unbelievable to me.
Do any of the rest of you know someone like this? If so, does there seem to be anything else "not quite right" about them? (There're other things about my BIL, but they've all been little things until this.) Or, am I overreacting?
My sister and her friend are coming down Friday and we're going to lunch. I just renembered seeing this new (?) place the other day, and I love Mediterranean food. If you've been there, what's it like?
Real-life example: A few minutes ago, the Dodgers' Max Muncy hit a monster home run into the second deck of Yankee Stadium. I started thinking of baseball clichés for long homers ("He hit that right on the screws" and dozens of others), and suddenly "He flattened out the zits on that one" popped ibto my head.
Is there a word or term for such one-off sayings?
Said he didn't see any signs of a wreck or maintenance or anything. Anybody know what was goibg on?
What's your favorite scene? Mine's from the beginning to the end.
The ride was great. The app blows goats.
The driver, Daniel, said he was the first Uber driver in this area; started 11 years ago. Really cool dude. Any y'all ever have him?
The Treaty of Paris, ending the American Revolutionary War and granting sovereignty to the 13 colonies, was signed on Sept. 3, 1783. *That's* when the U.S. became the U.S., not on July 4, 1776, when we simply declared our *intention* to be sovereign. The later date seems to me to be much more important.
What was it and how did you come across it?
My first one was this (copied and pasted from the main Python sub). It's about the 'My dog's got no nose" bit in "The funniest joke in the world" sketch (the finale of the very first episode):
>Somewhere, I have a piece of paper with what Hitler and the Young Workers Corps dude actually said in that clip, in both English and German. I'd gotten Leni Riefenstahl's epic *Triumph of the Will,* the documentary of the 1936 Nazi Party conference in Nuremberg, from Netflix back wnen DVDs were their main business. I about went nuts when it showed that bit. It was one of the greatest Python trivia finds of my life.
The second one was discovering (I forget how) the ñame of the background music in the "Nigel Islam and Brucie" animation with the two acrobats (to me, the funniest thing Gilliam did, largely because of the music):
Seems like it wasn't used much after the first season, but I could certainly be disremembering. (It does seem like Col. Potter said it at least once.)
(Quoted from memory.)
Apart from Col. Flagg, was there a more ridiculous, more militaristic line in the entire series?
Seriously, a bit of one. Or, I'll put it in the form of a request:
​
*Get the quotes right!* Please?
​
I'd guess about one comment in five is a misquote, and as a retired newspaper copy editor, that makes my brain hurt.
​
If you aren't sure of the line, here's the link to "Just the Words" for the tee vee series, and this is the one for the films and stuff.
​
I sincerely appreciate it.
...I suddenly remembered my house is quite lterally 10–20 feet inside the Capitola city limits. 😄
Still, the Postal Service says I live in Santa Cruz. Weird.
Say a guy singles, then goes to second on a walk. I'd put the position number of the guy who walked at the second-base point in the box of the guy who moved up. And so on.
I haven't seen anything like this in any of the sheets posted here. What method(s) do you use to show how a player moved up a base or more?
