I believe British humor is like their cuisine, dull and lacking. The British dramas on the other hand are usually better written and directed than what we get here. And when we do copy one of theirs, ours is a pale imitation, due mostly to censorship laws and the desire of Hollywood to pander to the biggest dollar.
Monty Python in the Quest for the Holy Grail is one of my favorite movies.

Excuse me but I must correct an erroneous statement that was made by someone who was misinformed. SWMBO (She Who MUST Be Obeyed) is from one of the greatest British dramas to be shown on this side of the puddle. I am referring of course to the great RUMPOLE of the BAILEY. SWMBO is the only way I believe that Rumpole refers to his wife in the show.

Enough soapboxing now.

I have made trips with my parents and my DMil & DSil, both BEFORE we were DVC members. We enjoyed both, but there was give and take, mostly DW & I giving and them taking. I would love to do another WDW trip, or any trip with DMil, but she passed away in 2007. We did not always agree on things, but I loved spending time with her (not so much DSil). Even if you have to go by yourself for a while (I did this with DW,DMil, & DSil) or with your DW, taking a trip with the in-laws are worth the investment of time and money.

While the actors in Monty Python are good, I never got into them or Benny Hill. I had a roommate while I was a CM at DLand (also a CM, my lead in fact) who thought Benny Hill and Monty Python were the greatest thing since sliced bread. I thought they were a waste of talent and film. But to each his own.
Now go away, or I will taunt you a second time.
