Like Handel, only funnier and not as good.

There are two kinds of days:

There are days that are terrible and make you want to throw yourelf off of a bridge out of sheer woebegoneness, and then there are days when you find out that Eric Idle, the world’s most attractive unnattractive man, has written an oratorio that is premiering in Toronto at a stupidly-named arts festival this summer. Those are my kind of days.

    You know what my favourite part is? My favourite part is in the article about the writing of the oratorio. My favourite part is the part at the top of the article where it says that the festival will be a 16-day showcase, and then the part at the bottom of the article where it says that the festival will happen June 1-10. Which is ten days, not sixteen. That’s my favourite part.

    Please please please tell me that we are going to try to get tickets to this piece of sheer genius.

    Um, yes yes yes we are, because not doing so would make us incredibly stupid people.

    Geez, some days just must be bad enough to do something tragic like throw your elf off of a bridge.

    (he he he — sorry, I couldn’t resist the quippy typo, and plus it makes it alot more fable-like, am I right?)

    I guess you’re kind of funny.
