I am soooo proud!

"Monty Python's Spamalot," an irreverent romp inspired by the British troupe's film, "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," took the prize for best musical, as well as for director Mike Nichols and featured actress Sara Ramirez, who portrays the divalike Lady in the Lake in the zany spoof.
"Now for something completely different, let's not thank Eric Idle, who was the genius behind this, and Monty Python," said Bill Haber, the show's producer.
Idle, ever the clown, slid through the crowd on stage and fell to the floor.
A somewhat flustered Nichols told the audience he had forgotten what he intended to say, but went on to thank "Spamalot" creator Idle, "from whom all blessings flow."
Okay, NA-
now will you watch 'The Holy Grail'?
Seriously, these guys have given me so much joy over the years- it is so great to see their work validated like this.
