Pythonalistic

The December 2004 New Yorker piece on Eric Idle ramping up "Spamalot" plus a short general history of the Pythons, is strangely encouraging, a light read that confirms the quality of something I already think is excellent, and shows how it is being used in a new and successful way.

This sort of event is so rare I hardly know how to react.

I was also irrationally surprised the New Yorker had a web site.

A fine bit - Elvis Presley loved the "Nudge, nudge, wink wink" skit, and quoted it frequently to his friends. This is even better if you imagine it the voice.
