Subj : Re: Do you remember the first time you saw Monty Python, movie or TV se To : George Kincaid From : moorebaby Date : Mon Apr 11 2005 01:10 am From: "moorebaby" My first introduction to Python was care of a teacher at my high school. In my first year I joined the Student Council, and the teacher in charge got us all out of class for a day to watch Life of Brian! How did he justify it? We were watching it to see how to conduct a meeting! ;0) "George Kincaid" wrote in message news:ksY5e.59265$cg1.17310@bgtnsc04-news.ops.worldnet.att.net... >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.
