What a surprise and a pleasure to find that the generic haiku is useful as well as ornamental. Stephen Fry's is funny too. Is that the same person who plays "Jeeves" on the British television show, or is that Stephen Frey? Anyway, Jeeves is hilarious. Sadly, I am more like Bertie Wooster myself. Credit for the "generic haiku" should be shared with one James Evans, now of Seattle, WA.

The same, and together with Hugh Laurie as Wooster, it was one of the most inspired pieces of casting I have ever seen on television, IMHO.

>Hugh Laurie as Wooster
and, speaking of connections, wasn't Laurie one of Black Adder's main foils?

[b/lue]
Yes he was, as was Fry. Fry had a recurring character as Lord/General Melchett, and Laurie was very good as the dimwitted Prince Regent in sereis 3 and Blackadder's leftenant in series 4.
