      Between Dunn's flops and the British accent the last 30 seconds sound like Eric Idle announcing - "Oh he's up, only to fall back down again." - Delivered in pure Python-ese understatement.

        Will the real Kerouac please stand.

        I said, ‘A line will take us hours maybe;
        Yet if it does not seem a moment’s thought,
        Our stitching and unstitching has been naught.
        Better go down upon your marrow-bones
        And scrub a kitchen pavement, or break stones
        Like an old pauper, in all kinds of weather;
        For to articulate sweet sounds together
        Is to work harder than all these, and yet
        Be thought an idler by the noisy set
        Of bankers, schoolmasters, and clergymen
        The martyrs call the world.’

        Yeats
