   According to Michael Palin (on David Letterman) the original title
of "The Meaning of Life" was "The Fish Film".  I believe it was originally
going to be an examination of human behaviour from a fish's-eye-view (those
fishies in the aquarium).  He also expressed great fondness for a sketch
from the old TV series called "The Fish Dance".  
   And now for something completely different.  I haven't seen Spinal Tap
yet, just opened today, but has anyone seen The Rutles?  It's a "documentary"
by Eric Idle about Dirk, Barry, Nasty and Stig, The Pre-Fab four.  Four 
working class lads from Liverpool who skyrocketed to worldwide obscurity.
It was originally a BBC special several years ago, it played on Cinemax
recently (around the time of all the 20th anniversary Beatles hype).
Great stuff, music was by Neil Innes and several Pythons quest
starred, also George Harrison.  Don't miss it if you get the chance.
