Happy Birthday, Zoot and Dingo!
Today is the birthday in 1942 of Carol Cleveland, principal female member of the Monty Python gang and all around good sport, considering what they put her up to. (And, if I may say so, not too bad on the eyes.)
Here is her O-fficial website. Apparently, she's still acting and making the celebrity rounds. Lots of other interesting biographical information as well.
Now for the spankings....
UPDATE: Oh, and while we're on the subject, Carol Cleveland or Connie Booth? Discuss.
UPDATE DEUX: Link fixed. Yeah, Jonah should be so lucky....

BTW, Carol's offical website is the Corner on National Review Online? Is Jonah Goldberg not telling us something?
Connie "It's a Fair Cop" Booth.

Carol. Carol Carol Carol.

Connie!
This may just be a case of (as the overdubbed judges put it on Iron Chef) personal preference (so I'm not saying that Connie isn't a fine looking woman), but I'd pick Carol overall on points [no double entendre intended there, folks...]
Posted by: Rex Ferric at January 13, 2006 04:09 PMInteresting comment at the end of the Wikipedia article on Connie Booth. "Booth has for years denied the fact that she had lesbian affairs at university. She was reported to have had a relationship with John Cleese's sister, Margeret Cleese.
She ended her acting career and now practices as a psychotherapist in London."
Obviously like George Constanza, John Cleese drove his wife into lesbianism and out of acting. Hmm - velly interesting
