Errrrrr......is that a quote from Monty Python?
If so, is that from the US release? As the UK release is Swallow instead of Crow.
I just would never have guessed that line would have been changed. Hahaha.

Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Lancelot: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I am not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Lancelot: My name is Sir Lancelot of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Lancelot: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Sir Lancelot: Blue.
Bridgekeeper: Go on. Off you go.
Sir Lancelot: Oh, thank you. Thank you very much.
Sir Robin: That's easy.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Robin: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I'm not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?
Sir Robin: Sir Robin of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Sir Robin: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the capital of Assyria?
[pause]
Sir Robin: I don't know that.
[he is thrown over the edge into the volcano]
Sir Robin: Auuuuuuuugh.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. What... is your name?
Galahad: Sir Galahad of Camelot.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
Galahad: I seek the Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your favourite colour?
Galahad: Blue. No, yel...
[he is also thrown over the edge]
Galahad: auuuuuuuugh.
Bridgekeeper: Hee hee heh. Stop. What... is your name?
King Arthur: It is 'Arthur', King of the Britons.
Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?
King Arthur: To seek the Holy Grail.
Bridgekeeper: What... is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?
King Arthur: What do you mean? An African or European swallow?
Bridgekeeper: Huh? I... I don't know that.
[he is thrown over]
Bridgekeeper: Auuuuuuuugh.
Sir Bedevere: How do know so much about swallows?
King Arthur: Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.
The more things change, the more they stay the same

Hoban 'Wash' Washburn: It's okay, I'm a leaf on the wind!
Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: What does that mean?

Correct. The line wasn't changed. We just changed it to fit our context. We're a little strange that way here at FoCCI. :)

Aside from coming from Guam, I am planning to drive cross country from NJ to San Diego.  I will be visiting friends along the way (Norfolk, Chicago, Houston, Tuscon) as well as hitting all the MLB parks along the way that I can.

More Aussies! And Guam is far too.

The cross country drive sounds fun with CC there at the finish line. Now that sounds like a nice way to spend a couple weeks (more? lol)

Independence, MO....right next to Kansas City. Anyone else going from here? I am going alone. Would love to know some fellow people from around here are going as well.

It would be interesting if there was a chart or map where we could put down where we are all coming from. I know there are a large majority from the US and I see quite a few from Australia, but it would be fun to see a world map and then people put where they are coming from.

I took the initiative of creating a Friends of CCI map for us.  It is only accessible through the link.  Drop a pin.  Click it and change it to your Friends of CCI name and save.

The map says 'view only' and I can't add a placemark.
