jams, on this side of the pond, scarcely anyone except for a few bloggers took notice of the day.
]]>You might have an election coming up shortly, with Blair set to leave and Brown not exactly everyone’s choice. What are the odds, Jams?
]]>For me the day is just anohter day but my poltroon of an MP was at the railway station this morning handing out leaflets wishing everyone a happy St George’s day
]]>Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
Who steals my purse steals trash; ’t is something, nothing;
’T was mine, ’t is his, and has been slave to thousands;
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him
And makes me poor indeed.
Iago speaking to Othello in Act III, Scene III of Othello
Introduced during the confirmation hearing.
I wonder if Mrs. Thomas guarded her hankies when Arlen was around.
]]>Specter quoted Iago’s lines in support of Clarence Thomas? ROTFL! People shouldn’t appropriate inappropriate Shakespeare quotes. Fortunately for us, that’s not the Specter haunting Texas, at least not very often. Our hostile idiots here don’t quote Shakespeare in painfully inappropriate circumstances: most of ’em couldn’t quote Shakespeare at all.
