So many images come to my mind, mainly from "Monty Python and the Holy 
Grail"

Like Sir Bill Gates hopping around playing horsey while Ballmer 
clip-clops coconuts (carried to Redmond by *European* swallows) ...

Or Sir Bill Gates hoppng on one leg saying "It's just a flesh wound ..."

Or Sir Bill Gates running around saying  "Ni ... Ni" with a shrubbery on 
his head...

What fun it must be to be a knight!
