* The Black Knight, in retirement. (Monty Python nod)

*Hey, after this, what say we do a little knight clubbing?

* You should not have come, old man....

*Ginsu, my butt...

* "It's like he's Knight of the Living Dead."

* Fred was encouraged after this, to quit his knight job.

* Come on, you pansy! (OK, I know, more Python)

* *We are the knights who say "Oh, my hip!" (I know, even more Python)

* Looks like the battery on your light sabre quit.

*Didn't mean to?! You put your sword right thru his head! (Yeah, I know, sorry)

* Edith complicated matters by having a series of swordgasms.

* "I'm invincible! The Black Knight always triumphs!" (OK, that's it, I'm outta here)

Off our rockers, actin' crazy,
With the right medication we won't be lazy.
Doin' the old folks boogie down on the farm.
Wheelchairs, they are locked arm in arm.
Paired off pacemakers with matchin' alarms.
Gives us just one more chance to spin one more yarn.
And you know that you're over the hill,
When your mind makes a promise that your body can't fill.
Doin' the old folks boogie and boogie we will,
'Cause to us the thought's as good as the thrill!

I'll fight the winner.

For the last time Fred, I apologize. You can have her if you want her. It's not like I was her first.

The national health plan is being financed by the revenue from the reality TV show with the winner of each bout getting the operation of their choice.

There seems to be a feedback loop between the fencing scoring system and the pacemakers.

The life and death struggle will continue for hours as each fighter stops and periodically has to ask again why they are fighting.

and finally, my attempt to break into the one category I have never been able to crack, the bottom of the barrel.

Who is going to win? Depends.
