Monkey pudding, John "Either I think up an idea, or, tomorrow, we die - which, Baldrick, I have to tell you, I have no intention of doing, because I want to be young and wild, and then I want to be middle-aged and rich, and then I want to be old and annoy people by pretending that I'm deaf." -- Edmund Blackadder III, Esq
