I like Shakespeare...even "bad" Shakespeare like Titus Andronicus, but I feel you here.

Great tale well told.

I'm sorry you were disappointed!

I've always been the same as you about Shakespeare. I need a Doc Elmore in my life, I guess! I love the way you wrapped this up at the end- perfect!

An optional lecture by an old man

I would be there with bells on (also if it were an old woman!!) I love hearing from older people :)

Great job with this one :)
