Good to still be getting reactions to that question. I first saw the
Pythons on PBS, too. I think it was the Mr. Pithers sketch, the man who was
bicycling across Britain. I was laughing like crazy, and my father came in
to see what was so funny. We were both converted on the spot. Dad still
tells that story. This would have been about 1977 or so, I guess. I was
about 12 or so. A little later, a group of the local kids gathered in our
backyard. We borrowed Dad's handkerchiefs and did the Gumby bit from the
architect sketch. My mom always worried about the effect the Pythons had on
us! ;)
