I'm not sure if Squirrel Infantry will catch on but lets run it up the flag pole and see who salutes it.

Ah, right - thanks Brian, wish I'd taken this a bit more seriously!

Never had this privilege before - will this one do? (Taken from the superb WSJ Picture-of-the-Day site; do hope Murdoch taking them over won't reduce the standard...)

Awfully sorry Shy - don't understand your banter, old man (Python circa 1970) (are you saying you can't see a pic there, or summat?)

Oh, and I'll go for judging Mon-Tue next week, inshallah.

A scene from the new "Python" film BRIAN II. Here we see the Judean Peoples Popular Front's crack suicide paras leap into action.

I think I'll probably join them if I don't get to see the photo soon

Aha! now it's appeared!

Kim il Jong's latest weapon system, codenamed "Butterfly Effect". The principle was simple, if all his troops flapped, they would cause a massive change in weather around the other side of the world.
