The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Isn't someone smug?

:lol:  He's totally stealing your shtick!

Gups, knock it off!

Well we have pot, kettle, black but we also have takes on to know one. :shrugs:

So, has anyone here bought a PDF ticket, and have they received it yet?

I love Python, but have no  interest in going to a show full of material I'd seen a dozen times performed by blokes way past their prime and/or dead who are doing it without any enthusiasm. Seriously, you've be much better off with a DVD of Live at the Holywood Bowl.

The idea of actually flying to anotehr country to watch this bemuses me totally. I assume that folk just want to be able to say "I've seen 'em live". Same goes for all the geriatric rock bands.

Alas we live in a world where people think that images on a screen are better than the real thing.  I blame online porn.

Stupid question:  should I ever manage to get a couple tickets, in the unfortunate case I cannot goto the show, can I sell them?

This seems to be a trusted way to do it. And you can still ask ridiculous prices for them.

Englishness is often interpreted as smugness.  It's just the way you people come across.  We can hear that accent in your typing.  :P

Seems to me that Americans find everyone else to be smug.

You're confusing American Exceptionalism with smugness.  Big difference.

Only Europeans and Canadians.  No one else tries to affect moral superiority.

Everyone else does as well.  You just have more trouble understanding them.

Is she American?

She's Korean.

That is her cultural background, but what is her nationality?  Does she live in the US?  Is she naturalized, on a visiting permit, or what?
