2. I love that movie.
"What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?"
"African or European?"

6. HELP HELP! I'm being repressed!

Come see the violence inherent in the system!

Strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

10. "I fart in your general direction!"
I've seen it numerous times and always love it! Enjoy!

Next, rent "And Now For Something Completely Different" for her. Loved the Upper Class Twit of the Year Race and The Art of Not Being Seen! :rofl:

11. I've probably seen that movie 500 times.
My college friends & I used to put that in the VCR and play euchre for money all night. We even came up with "special rules" that worked Python bits into our game. If you trumped your partner's ace without yelling "Ni!" you lost the hand. There were a bunch of other rules, but I forget most of them, and I won't bore you guys with a list of the ones I do remember.

Pretty dorky, I know, but it was a blast.

15. Doune Castle
All the castle scenes except the Castle Aaargh were filmed there.

If you have the MP&THG "special edition" DVD, there's a bit on the bonus disc where Palin and Jones return to some of the location scenes, including the castle, to reminesce about the filming. It's most entertaining and informational.
