And now, for something completely different...
Edited on Thu Jul-10-08 04:21 PM by Occam Bandage


Man: Morning!

Waitress: Morning!

Man: Well, what threads have you got?

Waitress: Well, there's Obama and FISA, Feingold and FISA, Clinton and FISA, FISA Rove and FISA, Pelosi FISA Reid Filibuster and FISA, FISA Dodd FISA FISA and FISA, FISA FISA FISA purity FISA and FISA, or a lovely discussion of the long-term global economic impact of Chinese devaluation of the yuan, specifically as regards FISA.

Vikings: FISA, FISA, FISA, FISA

Wife: Have you got any threads without FISA?

Waitress: Well, there's FISA Means We Should Have Nominated Hillary Clinton and FISA. That hasn't got much FISA in it.

Wife: I don't want ANY FISA!

Man: Why can't she read Patriot Act FISA and McCain?

Wife: THAT'S got FISA in it!

Man: Hasn't got as much FISA in it as FISA Means We Should Have Nominated Hillary Clinton and FISA, has it?

Vikings: FISA, FISA, FISA, FISA!

Wife: Could you do the Obama McCain FISA Debate Prediction FISA without the FISA then?

Waitress: Urgghh!

Wife: What do you mean 'Urgghh'? I don't like FISA!

Vikings: Lovely FISA! Wonderful FISA!

Waitress: Shut up!

Vikings: Lovely FISA! Wonderful FISA!

Waitress: Shut up! Bloody Vikings! You can't very well do Obama McCain FISA Debate Prediction FISA without the FISA!

Wife: I don't like FISA!

Man: Sshh, dear, don't cause a fuss. I'll have your FISA. I love it. I'm having FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA Kucinich FISA FISA and FISA!

Vikings: FISA FISA FISA FISA. Lovely FISA! Wonderful FISA!

Waitress: Shut up!! Kucinich is off.

Man: Well could I have her FISA instead of the Kucinich then?

Waitress: You mean FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA...

Vikings: FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA Wonderful FISA Lovely FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA Lovely FISA Wonderful FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA FISA...

PS: I liked your post. Excellent send-up of the periodic obsessions that DU slides into. (Wait; I meant "into which DU periodically slides!)

35. You don't live near Luton Airport, do you?
If so, you might want to go on holiday to Ibiza around Feb. 22, 1966.

I see you know the album version.

27. Actually, I think the title of this thread should be: "All I ever needed to know about politics,
I learned from Monty Python."

Thank you so much for your OP. I'm now off to perform the fish slapping dance.

30. This is comedic brilliance of a kind I've rarely seen
Seriously — I've hopped right over laughter and gone straight to awe.





I'm sending the link to Michael Palin. He'll absolutely adore it.
