Always look on the bright side of life!

Posted on February 26, 2010 | 7 Comments

Ugh, I’ve been insanely busy for the past few days! More “real” posts soon, promise. Anyway, for your Friday, a video that deserves lots of adjectives (and some adverbs, too), including: brilliant, wonderfully blasphemous, quite touching, incredibly hilarious, darling, and super-awesome:


For life is quite absurd,
And death’s the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin – give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it – it’s your last chance anyhow.

Life’s a piece of shit,
When you look at it.
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke, it’s true.
You’ll see it’s all a show,
Keep ‘em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

(From Life of Brian)

& Parenthetically: Eric Idle was super foxy back then. Super foxy!

    Have you watched the short film about a small Welsh town lifting their ban on Life of Brian after 30 years? Here's a link to part 1 of 3:

    Oh, and I totally agree about Eric Idle being foxy.

    Hiya!
    Back from heart surgery and stroke, checking through my favorite sites and found this.
    Thanks!
    Of course I have the DVD and Monty Python Sings! but it's always good to find it again.
    The first time saw this I was slack-jawed with astonishment at the bald-faced cheek of it.
    It went beyond blasphemous and into a realm all its own.
    This is the best stuff.
