A thoroughly splendid scene from Monty Python’s Life of Brian.
Terry Gilliam plays the twisted half naked guard, Graham Chapman
is Brian, and Michael Palin is the prisoner on the wall.
I quote this movie, and this scene, quite often.
Especially that line at the heading…

John Prine with a humorous tune about learning
the local lingo.
Think tropical paradise, a cool beverage, parties
on the beach, coconuts, and profanity.
Sums it right up…

The late, great John Pinette with a look at heat, humidity,
horrible crowds, and a mouse.
I have been to Florida in a sweltering heat, with humidty
that made my face melt, not my idea of a fun time.
Never mind standing in line for an overpriced kiddie ride.
Better him than me…

This is a repeat, but OH what a repeat!
I was always a sucker for a well made carrot cake.
This made my mouth get all wet and stuff.
Well, actually the drool was already here, but you
get the idea…

Cledus T. Judd with a neat little number about overindulgence
of the American kind.
Part comedy sketch, part song, all great!
Unless you like processed foods that is…
