I could write a whole essay about my reaction to the first class of our Contemporary Art & Literature course, but I just want to share the masterpiece that the eccentric Charles-Valentin Alkan reminded me of after hearing his famous 'Funeral March on the Death Parrot'; ladies and gentlemen, Monty Python's Death Parrot Sketch:
Monty Python was active when I was in high school. Then and now, I am blown away by the sharpness of their writing. All five of the Brits attended Oxford or Cambridge; these are very smart guys.
