Now, I'm just a colonial who doesn't know how to spell "humour", but 
didn't you say that you knew this sean bean chap personally?

Wasn't there a notorious 17th-18th century English highwayman 
named "Sawney Bean", who waylaid travellers, robbed and ate them, 
then raised an extended family of cannibals by interbreeding with his 
offspring?

My question is: is this chap in any way related, and are you at all 
nervous? ;>)
