One of my favorite Monte Python segments was the one about the Black Knight in, “In Search of the Holy Grail.” The story is about King Arthur coming to the Black Night that is guarding the bridge that “No man shall pass.” King Arthur ends up cutting off all of the knight’s arms and legs but the knight is still threatening King Arthur with biting him to death. I was reminded of this story the other day while inspecting a home when I saw this ceiling fan. Then again perhaps it was some advanced version of “She lo♥es me----she lo♥es me not.” Charles Buell

How funny! I saw that clip just over a year ago for the first time and it made me roll with laughter. Odd looking fan adjustment, but hey... I'm sure it's not the least of modifications you've seen.
Ashley, there are so many great Monte Python skits but for some reason that one really gets me:)
I prefer the dead parrot.
Alan, but it is dead
Ha ha! Oh, you take me back to my Monty Python filled high school days. Thanks for the memory!
Marian---you are very welcome----and remember---it is merely a flesh wound
Oh Charles, I'm sure she loves you. Next time I can't stop my ceiling fan from making that out balance clicking noise I'll do this instead of replace it. NOT.
Have a very Happy Thanksgiving Charles.
This is too funny -- and so is Monty Python & the Holy Grail! My son has the entire movie memorized. Fortunately, he no longer lives at home.
Tammy and a very Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.
Marcy---one of my daughters is the same way----she used to make us howl going into her rendition of Monte Python:)
CB, You'll forgive me for not reading your post right? I'm on a mission but this time it's because our daughter just left for the hospital to have the twins.
So I'm relying on you and James to fill in for me over Thanksgiving by keeping Nutsy in his place. I'll be back online in a few but for now I'm outa here.
Happy Thanksgiving and puleeze don't let Nutsy run amuck in my absence.
Kate
You have got it Kate---will do my best----best of luck witht he twins and have a happy Thanksgiving---looks like quite the eventful one for you:)
I'll bet you wrote up this poor little fan just because it had no blades. Bad home inspector, bad!!
And when the new owners turn on switches and wonder what the low hum is? This is very funny :)
Barbara---just doing my job:)
Shoshana----what IS that humming anyway?:)
Charlie - So this ceiling fan sort of reminds us of the black knight's limbless torso???? Just a flesh wound!
Carol, hopefully your mind doesn't go all the crazy places mine goes to---but yes---it is merely a flesh wound:)
Mr Charles,
I am left wondering if that device moves much air.
Nutsy
Charles,
You know it beats the heck out of trying to balance those blades.
Maybe they bought the one "on sale" -- Blades not included?!?
Nutsy, I will get back to you on that
Troy---it sure does----no wobble there:)
Carla, then again perhaps King Arthur has been around
So they were trying to see if the other one loved them by taking one blade at a time. hahahahaha
Ceiling fan, huh? I'd call it a noisy light.
Angelia----that is the idea :)
Reuben---don't you hate those "humming" light fixtures?:)
Mr Charles,
I am still waiting. Does that device move much air? Curious what impact it has, having no blades.
Nutsy
Nutsy isn't fur on fur redundant?
