Twitter meme: #MedievalMovies

So Twitter is a really addictive social sharing tool if you haven't tried it. A feature called "trending topics" shows you what tons of people are talking about ALL AT ONCE. It's like an RSS feed on crack.

One of today's trending topics is called #medievalmovies, and is hilarious. You have to *medievalify the names of non-medieval movies. Since not all of you have Twitter, I'm copying some of my favorites here. Man, it's like somebody started this JUST FOR ME! Some of these ideas are ripe for parody.

ROFLMAO! Those are brilliant! Thanks for that, nothing like some medieval wit first thing in the morning to start your day off right.

Your talent was clearly wasted at AG! (Mine too... happy to have gotten the axe). I've lost your number - give me a call if you feel like it. Cheryl will give you my number if you if you've lost mine, too.
