I must have been in junior high or so in the late '70s and I was watching one 
of the three PBS stations we got in my area. It was summer, and my parents were 
outside, as I remember. On this odd TV show, a strange British guy was 
bicycling across Britain, and kept getting into wrecks. There was a running gag 
about the window coming down on a receptionists hands, and Mr. Pithers kept 
getting lost. I remember howling at the sight gags so much my dad came inside 
to investigate. He was converted on the spot, too. I've been a Pythonite ever 
since. MP was cause for concern in the neighborhood for a while. A bunch of the 
local kids were found in a backyard with tied up handkerchiefs on their heads, 
standing like Gumbies re-enacting the Architect Sketch! I'd be curious to hear 
anybody's else's first memories of Monty Python. Up there!!
