I have a sinus thing too, I thought it was a Brit sinus thing -- it's cool and damp here, people are getting zapped by opportunistic infections... one gigabyte of RAM I could do with that, my PC's struggling on 512 Judy Evans, Cardiff ----- Original Message ----- From: jimkandjulieb@xxxxxxx To: lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, August 27, 2006 7:05 PM Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: Movie I <ahem> religiously watch Life of Brian every Easter. I think it's a far more compelling and better piece than the other Monty Python movie, which name I forget and which is better known and which, since I have a sinus thing going on and my computer is going to s**t I'm too lazy to look the name up. On the bright side Monday I am being shipped a brand new computer with one gigabyte of RAM and 80 GB fixed disk space. If I'm still alive I'll be in 7th heaven. Wait. You have to die to go to heaven don't you. Okay, I'm going to have to take some time to figure this out. Erin -- can any of the German philosophers help w/ this one? Julie Krueger on too much anti-histimines and decongestants. -----Original Message----- From: andreas@xxxxxxxxxxx To: lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sun, 27 Aug 2006 11:48 AM Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: Movie > Saw a nothing happens movie last night that was interesting, worth watching unless you > like excitement, in which case stay away.

Perhaps Irene was expecting "Snakes on a Plane". The movie is set in a neighborhood in Paris. It's one of the best depictions of daily life in Paris (asides from La femme Nikita). Last night, friends came over and we watched "Life of Brian" (Netflix). John Cleese shows up under various disguises in many scenes. The movie stays fresh because of its parody of the Judean People's Front, People's Front of Judea, and the Judean Popular People's Front. It also satirizes the origins of Christianity. The Romans get it too. In fact, everyone gets it. No wonder the Baptists burnt down a movie house over this.
