Every time I see Ron Christie on MSNBC I think of this Monty Python sketch....

He is the John Cleese character (sorry about the ad...its skippable...)

Edited to add: you need to know that nearly EVERYTHING in life reminds me of a Monty Python sketch. I can bring any discussion, be it philosophical, theological, political or gastronomical to a Monty Python reference of some sort. Mea culpa. I've been this way since I was 10. I'm not likely to change anytime soon.

Someone who is reminded of Monty Python quotes/sketches by nearly every daily occurrence. The other day I had a colleague mention that he was looking for someone who was an hour late and probably wouldn't be coming at all, and he referred to this person as, "Sir Not Appearing In This Film." I nearly hit the floor.
