Yeah...they are aren't they? And they DO get their good looks from their mother's side. The only thing they get from me is their big brown eyes, irresistible charm and magnetizing personality...and of course their brilliant intelligence.

Man...the last time I talked to you was shortly after he was born. Hard to believe it's been that long...or that you found the strength within yourself to resist the overwhelming urge to look me up during all that time.

 

Time merely makes the heart grow fonder, Pookins....

 

Shakespeare rocks!

Franco Zeffirelli did a great job with his 1990ish abridged Hamlet; first serious work I saw using Mel Gibson... and of course Ian Holm's words above (as Lord Polonious) are timeless as is almost everything William penned.

Mucky reading if you're not familiar with the lingo, but King James cured me of that decades ago!

Shakespeare's satire ranks right up there with Oscar Wilde's & Winston Churchill's to form the Terrible Trifecta of Touche'

 

Did you REALLY dig up a 3 month old thread just so you could talk about Shakespeare?

 

Can you think of a better reason?

 

What really has me curious is how you manged to dig up a 3 year old thread with a Shakespeare quote in it. Were you just browsing through old threads and saw one that said "Hey Hoss..." and decided to read it, or did you read it before and remember the Shakespeare quote and now, 3 months later, decide to respond to it??

 

Gee, I thought it was 3 months old?

Nevermind - it's irrelevant...

I was hunting for a helpful thread on multiple user names and the search delivered this one as first out of three.

Generally, I try to steer clear of threads with "Hoss" in the title, but occasionally I succumb to tempation.

As for Shakespeare - what can I say? Low-hanging fruit is equally irresistible...

 

I know the feeling.
