Last night after Family Reading Night at my daughter's school, I had to stop by the grocery store to pick up some milk. I don't know how this started, but somehow I got the idea of walking like Shaggy (from the Scooby-Doo cartoon) about the aisles of the supermarket and encouraging my kids to the do the same. It brought big laughs from my two kids, and my youngest -- the five-year old -- really looks funny when doing it. My daughter, on the other hand, mainly just laughed and said I was embarrassing her. Then she noted I needed to do these things around Mrs. Nasty, so I can embarrass her too. Duly noted. I probably need to brush up on Monty Python's "Ministry of Silly Walks" if I'm going to do it right, however. I need a research fellowship.
And that sketch reminds me of this one. Go Greeks!
Those are two of my favorite Monty Python skits. Of course, no one expects the Spanish Inquisition.
ReplyDeleteI think Aristotle or Isocrates should have scored the goal, not Socrates.
