What would you say if you met a member of Monty Python?

Surely you wouldn't quote a Python routine at him, would you? I mean, they must be thoroughly sick of that stuff. Or maybe not.

Actually, I'm pretty sure what I would say: nothing. I would pretend not to know who he was, assuming that the last thing he wants is for some stranger to start a conversation with him. If, in the grip of some wayward impulse, I did speak, I'm pretty sure I would say something stupid.

Actually, I probably wouldn't recognize him, unless he was John Cleese and looked exactly as he did in the 1970s.

    The whole time I was reading the first paragraph, I was thinking that I wouldn’t recognize him unless it was John Cleese. 😉 I might be thinking that he looked familiar, but then I think that about almost everyone I meet.

    I have that problem, too. I used to sometimes ask people if I knew them from somewhere but quit, because most of the time I didn’t.

    I have this theory that there are only so many types of faces and by the time you are our age you have seen them all so everyone looks familiar.

    I suspect that’s true.

    I say “I’ve” started unpacking not because NLLDH is making me do this, but because I am 1) a control freak, 2) mildly OCD in a way that manifests as severe twitching when things are Out Of Place & Not Where They’re Supposed To Be (Even If I’m The One Who Decides Where Something Is Supposed To Be), and 3) a bigger collector of stuff than NLLDH

    I can see how shoes might think that.

    Ha. I was going to remove that spam comment but I have to let your wit stand. (I did remove the spammer’s url.)
