Air speed velocity?

Re: Air speed velocity?

Ahhhhhhh Monty Python.

Anyway, this category was (as you can tell) a bit of a joke but it is to let you know that we can customize and create just about any category.
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

Jeff - Like this crowd needs a 'special' place to do that? :lol: Now, if you'll excuse me I'm off to find a killer rabbit that has been terrorizing the kingdom... I mean neighborhood... ;)

Oh, you mean property maintenance. ;)
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

Jeff - Yeah, that too. :p

Right now I have on my desk one complaint about chickens and a second complaint about pigs... :roll:

And you guys wonder why I seem to spend so much time on Bulletin Boards? :cry:

I'm saving the woodstove-flue pipe-thru-plywood-in-the-window for a slow day! :shock:

Go away or I'll fart in your general direction -- you english k-nigh-et!
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

haz - May I offer you a fine shrubbery in lieu of your distasteful punishment?

Blessed are the cheesmakers, for they shall inherit the crackers
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

Re: Air speed velocity?

But we must agree to vote that it has the right to be an unladen swallow even it is a buzzard. I think we should call him Loretta.
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

But EVERYBODY loves a Monty Python Forum! :D

A killer rabbit?!? What does he do? Nibble your buns?
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Who goes there?

King Arthur: It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of all England!

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Pull the other one!

King Arthur: I am, and this is my trusty servant Patsy. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master.

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: What? Ridden on a horse?

King Arthur: Yes!

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: You're using coconuts!

King Arthur: What?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together.

King Arthur: So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercia, through...

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Where'd you get the coconuts?

King Arthur: We found them.

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical!

King Arthur: What do you mean?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Well, this is a temperate zone

King Arthur: The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

King Arthur: Not at all. They could be carried.

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: What? A swallow carrying a coconut?

King Arthur: It could grip it by the husk!

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.

King Arthur: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here?

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?

King Arthur: Please!

1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Am I right?
 
Re: Air speed velocity?

No, I'm just hoping that we can continue to keep a Monty Python thread alive. It makes me laugh with much joy and glee.

I'm Not Dead..Yet.
