So glad you liked it - although lack of oxygen is a problem. Perhaps you should see a doctor? ^_~

Right on target at every point!

That particular version of 47 Ginger-Headed Sailors wouldn't happen to have been performed by an Englishman with a remarkable resemblance to House, would it? ^_~

Only if Wilson happens to be a fan of a British TV show starring a character with a remarkable resemblance to House. ^_~

This was hilarious! I was laughing out loud through the entire thing. Absolutely fantastic! :D

Thank you! I hope you were in at least a semi-public place so you could freak out the people around you while you laughed; personally, I've always found that to add considerably to the experience.

Oh you are a sly dog!

47 Ginger-Headed Sailors

Oh REALLY?! How terribly interesting. Now correct me if I'm wrong (which I'm not, but all the same), but the singer of that lovely ditty is Hugh Laurie shaped, no?

Catullus

Okay this one is perhaps more obscure...unless you have, perhaps, read and/or seen The Invention of Love by Tom Stoppard.

Right. So I did the whole nature documentry thing to one of my friends once. He was less than amused. I, on the other hand, could not have been more amused. This story just brought back so many happy memories. Thanks!

Let's just say that if 47 Ginger-Headed Sailors failed to produce results, House was going to move on to Minnie the Moocher next.

Okay [Catullus] is perhaps more obscure...unless you have, perhaps, read and/or seen The Invention of Love by Tom Stoppard.

No, Tom Stoppard's brilliance has only recently been brought to my attention, so Arcadia is the only one of his plays with which I'm familiar (although I'll certainly add The Invention of Love to my reading list). I threw Catullus in there because:

a) As a classical poet, he's certainly less inane than the magazines in hospital waiting rooms
b) His poems seem right up House's alley
c) He's not exactly what you'd call workplace-appropriate
d) it was a bit of a nod to House's Holmesian roots, since Holmes once disguised himself as an old bookseller and tried to get Watson to take a copy of Catullus's poems

Right. So I ( ... )

Ah, messed up my links. Eesh, I'm talented. Anyway, the second Catullus link was supposed to direct you to this one, if you were curious.

House would be a fantastic writer if he weren't busy being a doctor.

Which he isn't, mind; he has plenty of time on his hands, so he really has no excuse for not doing so.
