Don't you kids ever play outside?

Merry Christmas (happy other holidays as well) dear reader.

It's not yet Christmas, but the Pennsylvania snow has fallen, presents are becoming wrapped, and the winter break is in full swing. Sleeping in late and doing a whole lot o' nothin. Yessss! Anyways, you know the details of life, let's move on.

I propose that to the majority of the public, the parts when Shakespeare gets "good" are those when someone is yelling or killing. The rest of it seems self indulgent (i.e. the love scenes in Romeo and Juliet when they talk metaphors for about 5 minutes before kissing, or the 'to be or not to be' speech). People don't go to see a show for beautiful poetry any more (I don't think most people did in Shakespeare's time either, except the hoity-toity nobles), they want to see some passion. Finding great quarrel over an eggshell as it were. So okay, maybe because it takes a lot of specific schooling to appreciate the nuances of Shakespeare his work is not relevant today. It is heretical to say such things, but whatevs.

Frank Zappa claims that his daughter Moon Unit's first word was "Werp".
