Unknown LRPDs
As a side note, I was researching 'Incidentally, my Liege, this is how we know the world to be banana-shaped' for I suspected Python but couldn't quite place it. ANyway, a Google search had three entries - the first two of which were links to zIWETHEY. I was amused, anyway :)
But on to business... the lrpdisms I still don't get are...
Just a little peril? Why does this guitar smell like CHEESE?!?
Any elucidation (or even wild speculation) would be gratefully received.
On and on and on and on, and on and on and on goes John.

Those have always baffled me too...
...but, FWIW (from the Department for Wild Speculation), I've always felt the "guitar ... CHEESE?!?" one could have been something someone said at one of BeeP's fourth-of-July get-togethers.
This is probably totally wrong, and likely inspired by nothing more than BeeP's guitar-toting self-portrait here, but who cares -- as long as it gives me *something* to hang a rationalization on?

The tune of the unknown LRPDer.
"Just a little peril?": Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Galahad is in the castle Argh, and the peril consists of a horrible threat of spanking and oral sex from 3 score blondes and brunettes between the ages of 16 and 19 1/2 (or something along those lines). Lancelot comes to rescue him, Galahad doesn't want to go, and Lancelot tells him "No, it's too perilous." Hence, Galahad's remark.
"Boy, why does this guitar smell like CHEESE??": King Of The Hill. The son decides to play his dad's guitar with a block of cheddar, because then he'll be "shredding" just like the rock stars.
As the LRPD for this page says: "Gee whillikers!"

Oh, wicked Zoot! Bad, wicked, NAUGHTY Zoot! She's been setting light to the beacon again, which as I remember is incidentally Grail-shaped.

Ah yes.. Zoot. Ya oughtta see her sister,
Alors.
Then I bought this Python book, ready to settle in for some reminiscences.. and all it was, was a bunch of ?| g.z $#/\\ stuff.
So they let me trade it for a little metaphysical tome about Oracles and.. and THAT was full of cabalistic stuff too, even though it was in the Technical Fiction section.
Whatever hapened to truth in advertising? and what sort of species reads these .gz $/\\ cabalistic engrams, anyway - or are these secret codes for subversive groups? Maybe I'd better tell the General Attorney about this..
Hey I could get on Tee Vee...

Not secret codes for a subversive group.
We prefer to call it "[link|http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node=steganography|steganography]."

I *must* watch Holy Grail again
It's been a while since I've seen it - and if I'm forgetting all the quotes, then it's a sure sign I'm due for some intensive studying :)
Funnily enough, it's in the DVD collection of the place I'm staying at the moment. Yay!

Right, you...
... now I've been motivated to go rummaging in my video cabinet to unearth it. I know I've got it somewhere.
And FYI, I've had a Bible since I Was Very Small. I've had a copy of Monty Python's commentary for A Much Shorter Time.

No hurry.
I found my copy on VHS. Besides, I'm busy most nights for the next few ... for rather a while.
