There is a great parody of that in History of the World Part I where the conquering general going to meet Caesar is told "remember thou art mortal" to which he replies "Blow it out your @$$."

I read your travelogue to my daughter last night while we were watching the HBO tribute to Camacho during the Berto-Guerrero fight and you had her laughing out loud with your description of the bizarre events.
