Hunting in the Sahara - Michael Palin for BBC

[On the Road]

Not that this is relevant to anything, but for all you afficianados of antique firearms, here is a clip showing among other things a flintlock rifle fired by a Dogon tribesman in Mali.

Courtesy of Michael Palin of Monty Python. Only seen a couple of episodes, but this seems to have been a great series.

1. I really feel so bad for Michael Palin that he has to share his last name with an idiot

I can't help it. When I see that name, I have a negative reaction and then I have to remember that he is a good Palin.

4. You Know, I Tend Not to Even Think of That

Those people people reside on completely opposite sides of the brain. It might actually have made a good 'gotcha' title under General Discussion ("Paling Hunting in the Sahara"), but didn't even think of it.

Hoped it would serve as a break from second amendment arguments. : )

6. She should wear a goatee...

The evil twin always has the goatee...

9. As Charlie Brooker recently remarked "Michael Palin is in no way related to Sarah Palin..."

"...unless, perhaps, he fucked a jackal."

7. Sahara, The New Europe, The Himalayas

The man is a world treasure. All of these series are available from Netflix and also my local library. Some of the best, most intelligent programming to ever be put to TV.

8. I got a Palin travel DVD at the library - North Pole to South Pole

Very good.
