The well, she is dry

Nothing to report today, other than that I may have just contracted RSV from a baby in the library. I hope I pull through.

Introduced GH yesterday to the delight that is Cold Comfort Farm. Even though he could only catch about half of the mumbled country English dialog, I think he still got quite a lot out of it. And really, many of life's important lessons can be found in this film, I think.




For example:


The wages of sin is Death.

Highly sexed young men living on farms are always called Seth or Reuben.

Nature's all very well in her place, but she musn't be allowed to make things untidy.

When poetry is combined with ill-groomed hair and eccentric dress, it's generally fatal.

And, most importantly, there'll be no butter in hell.



What important life lessons have you learned from movies?
