Life of bk

Believe it or not, I am, tonight, for the very first time ever, watching The Life of Brian.

Friggen hilarious!

I remember standing at my hallway locker at Cathedral School, one locker away from David Miller, the handsome, cool, athletic, black boy who all the girls admired, and two lockers away from Caitlin Murray, first girl to break my heart. (Knatz, Miller, Murray ... our lockers must have been in alphabetical order.) According to IMDB, Life of Brian came out in 1979 which would have made us 12 years old.

The three of us, standing at our lockers:

David Miller: [to Caitlin] So, what's new in the life of Caitlin?
Caitlin Murray: [to David] Oh, not much. What's new in the life of David? [turning to Brian] THE LIFE OF BRIAN! [laughter]

[Brian walks away in disgust.]

Somehow, that stupid little seven-second exchange managed to keep me away from Monty Python's masterpiece for the next quarter century!
