Sweet merciful heavens. Since I'm not ready to leave this country yet, I'll not write what I'm really thinking about how dead-bang right Basil Fawlty could be, even accidentally.

Once I'm in Ireland, though, I'll put this to music and record in on an album . . .

Good stuff. I've always found American triumphalism and exceptionalism worthy of disgust. Oops - I'm writing this on a foreign blog. I hope I don't get Dixie-Chicked back here in the States.

Funny stuff Trevor! I do love John Cleese even if he doesn't like unrefined Americans!

My favorite sketch of his is The Cheese Shoppe - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3KBuQHHKx0

Thanks for making me laugh today!

Hi John

Can you remember the Ministry of Silly Walks sketch from Python? - this is hilarious and Cleese at his very best.

Trevor,

I've been a fan of John Cleese ever since my younger days when he was in Monty Python. Some of their bits are somewhat dated, but who could forget the "Dead Parrot" or the "Lumberjack" sketch? Python rules! 8-)

John - Hope you are well - sorry about the baseball:-)

John Cleese in character as Basil Fawlty is a very old fashioned and traditional Englishman - Fawlty Towers was a hilarious TV programme though.

Trevor,

How anyone could interpret anything from John Cleese as anything but satire is beyond me, although as a diehard Chicago Cubs fan I found the baseball bit a tad over the top: see Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Mexico, Central America, much of South America, etc.

Very funny nevertheless.
