<<YKYBWHLT...long when every single actor in this movie looks like he could
have or should have been in a Highlander episode. After checking the Internet
Movie Database, though, no such luck.>>
I know! I thought Paul Bettany would be the perfect immortal! (Had to check IMDB too, just to make sure he hadn't been) :-)

___________________________
This week's CyberChuckle comes in the form of a letter to Dr. Laura,
Laura Schlessinger, famous or infamous (depending on your persuasion)
for pointing out to her many radio listeners, for example, that homoseuality
is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned
under any circumstances. Here goes...enjoy!
Dear Dr. Laura:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I
have learned a great deal from your radio show, and I try to share that
knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend
the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that
Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I
do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of other specific
Bible laws and how to follow them.
a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a
pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They
claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
>
b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in
Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair
price for her? She's 18 and starting University. Will the slave buyer
continue to pay for her education by law ?
c) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her
period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is, how
do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
d) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and
female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend
of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you
clarify? ....Why can't I own Canadians?
e) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2
clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill
him myself, or should this be a neighborhood improvement project?
f) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an
abomination (Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality.
I don't agree. Can you settle this?
g) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have
a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does
my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here? Would
contact lenses help ?
h) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair
around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by
Lev.19:27. How should they die?
i) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me
unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
j) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different
crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of
two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to
curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the
trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev.24:10-16)
Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we
do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident
you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is
eternal and unchanging.
Your devoted disciple and adoring fan.

The scene involves the 4 side kicks (1) the girl who begame the Knight's
blacksmith, (2) the two friends who became the Knight's squires and (3)
Chaucer. The are all sitting around on a loft drinking beer (ale) and the
biggest squire desides to share some noxious fumes and sounds with everyone
else. Loudly I might add. Well Chaucer chimes in with his own rendition,
which is even louder. The girl can't be upstaged by the guys, so she puts on
a better (louder) performance. Well, finally, the second squire (the tall
red head) works on his own performance ensuring that it will be the best,
biggest finale ever............he comes off with a dud. All that work and
nothing to show for it!!! They all crack up laughing and the screen goes
blank! Now, I warned you that it was crude and rude, but it really was funny!
Ciao
