Wednesday, November 29. William Shakespeare's Thought For The Day:


"If Heaven have any grievous plague in store
Exceeding those that I can wish upon thee,
O, let them keep it till thy sins be ripe,
And then hurl down their indignation
On thee, the troubler of the poor world's peace."

Richard III, Act I, Scene 3, Lines 217-221.


Seems to be a Bush-at-the-podium theme going on this week...

3. I was thinking mean-spirited, spoiled, petty, impatient, arrogant,
vile, repulsive, idiotic and contemptible.

But okay, constipated will do. B-)

4. Good morning, lelapin. How are you, sweetie?
:hi:

I'm trying to avoid making WSTFTD one long, boring rant against B*sh; but the quotes for the past two days just leaped out at me. Had to make good on them. :-)

I'm doing well. :D :hi: How're you?

Nah, I think every one of these I've read has been interesting. But you're right, this quote is perfect. :D
