I am finding a great deal in common with many of you and wanted to put out my feelers a little farther. The Young Frankentstein thread was a success.

Has anyone seen the Terry Gilliam film "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen"? circa 1989 It is another one of my favorites.

Eric Idle is the character Berthold who wears shackles and weights because he cant control his hyperspeed legs. When Berthold meets the Baron for the first time in many years the exchange goes like this.

Berthold- "Do I know you?"
Baron- "I'm Baron Munchausen"
Berthold- "Sounds nasty... Is it contagious?"
