TAM...wherfore art thou

[Hoi Polloi]

OH

MY

GOD!

Is this what we have come to?


Everybody drop and give me 50. Gimme 50 more for Chesty!

And then cry havoc! And let slip...the dogs of war.

Thou callest me a dog before thou hast cause. But since I am a dog, beware my fangs.

Goodness gracious!!!!

What did I start?!!!.....

I vow to never irresponsibly toss around Shakespeare quotes again....

And according to the media we are all a bunch of drooling, toothless hillbillies...apparently not....

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em.

STOP IT AWREADY!!!
I CAN'T TAKE ANY MORE!!!

[Skiprr]

Seal up the mouth of outrage for a while,
Till we can clear these ambiguities
And know their spring, their head, their true descent...

[sugar land dave]

O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?

The best laid plans,
of mice and men,
done in by the wife,
Again!

From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered.
We few, we happy few, we band of bubbas

My personal favorite.

Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York;
And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.
Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;
Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;
Our stern alarums chang'd to merry meetings,
Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.
Grim-visag'd war hath smooth'd his wrinkled front;
And now,--instead of mounting barbed steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,--
He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.
But I,--that am not shap'd for sportive tricks,
Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;
I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton ambling nymph;
I, that am curtail'd of this fair proportion,
Cheated of feature by dissembling nature,
Deform'd, unfinish'd, sent before my time
Into this breathing world scarce half made up,
And that so lamely and unfashionable
That dogs bark at me as I halt by them;--
Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace,
Have no delight to pass away the time,
Unless to spy my shadow in the sun,
And descant on mine own deformity:
And therefore,--since I cannot prove a lover,
To entertain these fair well-spoken days,--
I am determined to prove a villain,
And hate the idle pleasures of these days.
Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,
By drunken prophecies, libels, and dreams,
To set my brother Clarence and the king
In deadly hate the one against the other:
And if King Edward be as true and just
As I am subtle, false, and treacherous,
This day should Clarence closely be mew'd up,--
About a prophecy which says that G
Of Edward's heirs the murderer shall be.
Dive, thoughts, down to my soul

[paulhailes]

TAM do you feel awkward that so many people are reading Shakespeare to you?

[Skiprr]

What the...

I thought we were limited to Romeo and Juliet.

Where did Richard III come into this?

I'm confused...

Sorry to get the thred off topic I just like Richard III, a small part may be I share the name of the title character

[sugar land dave]

I tried. I really did try to bring every one back to the future. But I couldn't do it. Looks like it's olde Englande to be.

There was a topic?!!!.......

I'm going to owe TAM at least a box of ammo for starting this...but in the spirit I'll offer the anti's lament...

"True, I talk of dreams,
Which are the children of an idle brain,
Begot of nothing but vain fantasy."
