Monty Python

kricker posted that she'd found a book in the store called The Idiot's Guide to Middle Eastern Conflict. It reminded me of an old Monty Python sketch:

Well last week we showed you how to become a gynecologist. And this week on "How to do it" we're going to show you how to play the flute, how to split an atom, how to construct a box girder bridge, how to irrigate the Sahara Desert and make vast new areas of land cultivatable, but first, here's Jackie to tell you all how to rid the world of all known diseases.

Hello Alan.

Hello, Jackie.

Well, first of all, become a doctor and discover a marvellous new cure for something, and then, when the medical profession really starts to take notice of you, you can jolly well tell them what to do and make sure they get everything right so there'll never be any diseases ever again.

Thank Jackie. Great Idea. How to play the flute. Well here we are. You blow there and you move your fingers up and down here.

Great, great, Alan. Well, next week we'll be showing you how black and white people can live together in peace and harmony, and Alan will be over in Moscow showing us how to reconcile the Russians and the Chinese, So, until next week, cheerio!
