TheBanyanTree: You can't bury a cow here

[Theta Brentnall]

Ah, I'm so sorry that I was the one to crush your fantasy.  Yes, 
Virginia, there are people who don't get Monty Python.  My husband has a 
cousin who can sit through the dead parrot routine without cracking a 
smile and then say that it's cruel to tease someone like that.  And be 
absolutely serious about it.  We try very hard not to crack jokes in her 
presence. (Other than completely lacking the humor gene, she's really a 
nice person.)

We were a little worried about both our sons-in-law, neither of whom had 
ever heard of Monty Python, but they both embraced the experience when 
we introduced them to Monty, and now frequently quote such classic lines 
as "Bring me a shrubbery!"  I should have known my daughters wouldn't 
have married humor deficient guys.
