You can learn so much on internet chat boards. I, for one, am thankful for them.

Hey, I said "I gotta feeling"...I didn't say that I know.

The Producers and The Mouse That Roared are movies that had two of the most ingenious plots. In the 1959 British flick The Mouse that Roared the tiny, backwards country of Grand Fenwick is on the verge of national bankruptcy. It declares war on the superpower US, perfectly expecting to lose the war right away, but also expecting to in return receive the generous monies that the US normally gives countries it defeats (WWII Germany). The only mistake in the application of this plan is Grand Fenwick wins the war. The movie stars Peter Sellars playing multiple parts including a Duchess.

A classic movie. If I remember correctly, their invasion is, coincidentally, occurring as the country is conducting a civil defense drill. So they can find no one to fight and "win" the war. The US is forced to surrender.

After winning the war, they realize that means they won't get any aid.

So, by using Sir Bedevere's logical deduction process , that would mean Doug Allen is a woman?
