[Aristus]

"He is not the flower of courtesy."

Romeo And Juliet, Act II, Scene 5, Line 43.

[Orsino]

1. Heh.

He does, however, promote plant growth. :rofl:

2. My dear Aristus.....

Before the picture downloaded, and all I could see was the quote....

I just knew it was going to be Bolton!

Another great quote!

Thank you for doing this, every day! Except Sunday, of course!


:loveya: :hug:

[Aristus]

4. Always a pleasure, CalPeg.

I like the understated tone of today's quote. I mean, I love it when the Bard really burns someone, but in this case, less is more. :hi:

3. Yea, good to see you this morning, Aristus.

Good choice. He always looks cranky to me.

[Aristus]

5. Good to see you, too.

Well, my own daily feature got its first disruptor today. For some unknown reason, Orsino decided to be a real horse's patoot this morning. He totally bogarted my Shakespeare feature, and when several other DU-ers and I called him on it, he was all: 'Oh, did *I* do that? Silly me! Oh dear! I didn't possibly OFFEND you, did I?"
:argh:

Oh well, better than indifference, I guess.

6. Good one.

Yeah, I was wondering what happened. I guess imitation is the sincerest form, and all that. Looking forward to Monday's quote.

[Aristus]

7. Well...one or two copycat threads might have been flattering.

He posted at least sixteen by my count. That's not flattery; that's being assholistic for its own sake.
He was trying to, as his "Twelfth Night" namesake might say,: "Give us excess of it, that, surfeiting, the appetite may sicken and so die..."

I only have about six or seven regular readers of WSTFTD. I don't want to lose them due to being overwhelmed and ultimately bored.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. Never fear, my dear Aristus.....

Your loyal readers will always be loyal!

You are the original, and the best, Shakespeare quoter!

:loveya: :hug: :loveya:
