HAPPY 443rd BIRTHDAY

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE

Yup, ol' Bill was born on April 23rd, 1564.

I enjoyed Shakespeare in high school. My favorite was "A mid-summer's night dream". In the late 1930's, the contract "Child Stars of Hollywood" were forced to make this into a film. They hated the idea but were obliged to perform. The kids decided to play their roles as "over-the-top" as they could. What they didn't realize is thats how ol' Bill wanted it done. He was a master at farce. I think its available on DVD.

As much of a kick back day as is possible. Slept. Watched TV. Played on the computer. Went to Judy's for dinner, we had artichokes again. Watched the new episode of HEROES. Visited. Relaxed.

Exciting, huh?

I hope each and everyone of you have a great week.
