IDLE Thoughts

Cheeses Christ, get over it, Eric.

I wonder how many will re-tweet or make a witty comment on this. I guess if you write "Who Cares" or "The cheese shop is probably run by people who never heard of you," you'd get blocked.

Yes, Eric Idle and John Cleese are on some kind of tour, starting in a few days. Cleese frankly said the show "is not very good," and chuckled that it was starting up in Sarasota, FL so that, if it truly sucked, nobody would even know. Changes could be made. Or the whole thing abandoned? John joked (truthfully) that the main reason to bring Idle on tour with him was that Idle can sing songs. That would break up the monotony of a Cleese solo show, and at his age, why should Cleese work THAT hard?

Cleese isn't all that amused with Python fans who come up to him and quote lines that he's either long-forgotten or wishes he never said. Idle? Apparently not. His Life is Python. He did a sketch in a cheese shop; so he'll go into cheese shops and hope to be recognized and lauded. CHEESY.

TWATTER is less and less about any kind of useful information, or quotable wit, and just preening and promotion. It's for egomaniacs and pretenders. The fucking website should be called I ME MINE.
