Much Ado About Nothing

[eyer]

I am trusted with a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog; therefore I have
decreed not to sing in my cage. If I had my mouth, I would bite; if I had my liberty, I would do my liking. In the meantime, let me be that I am, and seek not to alter me.

You "muzzle"d? You "clog"ged?

You "have decreed not to sing in" your cage"?

"If" you "had" your "mouth"?

The sex offender doth protest too much...

...methinks.

I get a free bump and I don't have to read what he says, so it's a win-win.

Although I might break up the Shakespeare with some random Bowie just to see if anybody's listening.

quite so

why not? we've had some not-so-random dire straits, and i'm never averse to a bit of bowie

time takes a cigarette....

I figure...if he's busy bugging me to no effect, that's another human being spared his attention. win-win-win.

Turn to the left, turn to the right.

ok, back on ignore since you have nothing of value to contribute. as per.

You're obviously mistaking the button for the ignore feature...

You two birds of a feather favor Bowie?

Who would've thunk it...

7. Jimmy Page
6. David Bowie

We put these two together for one very disturbingly icky reason: They both nailed Lori Maddox. Maddox (or Lori Lightning as she was known) was a notorious groupie in the early 70s. She reportedly lost her virginity to Bowie at the ripe age of 13...

I think others see bullies as distasteful and I see them as...opportunities.

Eyer helped me spread the work of the Bard today. It is a good day.

Eyer: What, my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living?

Recidiva: Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as eyer? Courtesy itself must convert to disdain, if you come in her presence.

ouch - sorry, 'speare

A ewe's face with nature's own hand painted,
Hast thou, the ewe ram of this passion;
A ewe's gentle heart, but not acquainted
With shifting change, as is false ewe's fashion:
An eye more bright than theirs, less false in rolling,
Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth;
A ram in hue, all 'hues' in his controlling,
Much steals ram's eyes and ewe's souls amazeth.
And for a ewe wert thou first created;
Till Nature, as she wrought thee, fell a-doting,
And by addition thee not they defeated,
By adding one thing to my purpose nothing.
But since she prick'd thee out for ewe's pleasure,
Theirs be thy love and thy love's use their treasure.

I paraphrased.

Don't forget a probable woman-beater, too...

...you remember pulling that out of that...azz of yours, right?

Another liar you enabled was insisting that I have a "propensity" of calling the women of LIT "sluts", and she actively sought to condemn me online for it...

...unfortunately for her credibility, it was presented that there was not a shred of evidence within my entire posting history here on the GB to support her "propensity" charge.

No matter to her, though: she insisted she was right, anyway...

...and you chose that opportunity to jump-in with your totally subjective viewpoint that I strike you as someone who beats women, too.

Now, I fully understand your sensitiveness to men beating women, because I remember you wanker queen-esquely posting that one of your husbands beat you...

...but, just as Recidiva sees nothing inherently wrong with her purposeful choice to cyber with a minor, you don't seem to realize your own judgement is hugely faulty, too, especially where it concerns issues it's impossible for you to be objective with.

But, again just like Recidiva, you'll no doubt bristle at the mere suggestion that your judgement may be flawed...

...even though that truth is solidly confirmed by the fact your judgement allowed you to marry a man who beat you.

I know, I know...

...your judgement's not to blame, right?

Funny how Recidiva shares the same victim philosopy...

...huh?

Good stuff. One of my favorite RSC performances was their Nicholas Nickelby.

I think one of my first utilizations of the internet was to track down someone who had a copy of it on VHS and buy it.

You know I tracked down that performance of Nickelby, too! I watch it at least once a year. It's great accompaniment for big jobs like holiday baking. I also adore the Tenth Anniversary Concert of Les Mis because Alun Armstrong, who does such a delicious Thenardier, wowed me as Wackford Squeers in Nickelby. Well also they're both great shows.

For Shakespeare, I adore Looking for Richard, Pacino's docu about performing Richard III. The way they cut the scenes between the actors talking about the play and their roles and the actual performances seems brilliant to me. Al just nails it as Richard, makes you feel suspended between sympathy and disgust. And Kevin Spacey is an awesome Buckingham. Winona Ryder as Lady Anne is a less good casting imo though. I especially love the scenes in The Cloisters and Pacino walking around Central Parking, grabbing people and asking, "Hey. You like Shakespeare?" That just makes me laugh.

since you both recommend it so highly, i'll see if i can find a copy. i'm wondering if it's the same as the one i saw on tv a few years back though i don't recall alun armstrong being in it. hmmn. and hello, angeline

There are no "unnatural acts" between consenting adults...

...so, if I ever am frogged-marched to jail for sheep sex, don't you for a minute believe she didn't love me as much as I loved her.

But, I'm not like you and Recidiva and all your peers...

...for I cherish the righteous innocence of lambs and, no matter how bent psychologically I ever get like you and yours, I will still await their coming of age before interacting with them sexually.

Hey beautiful!

Yes! Alun Armstrong is such a wonderful actor! I don't get enough of him in my life either.

I'll have to check out "Looking for Richard" I haven't seen it yet.

I remember Richard Dreyfuss in "The Goodbye Girl" arguing about why Richard should NOT be gay.

MARK Now, what's the objection Elliot?

ELLIOT GARFIELD Well, number 1 I have to play it. Number 2 I like the hump and the club foot and number 3 I've been working on the part for 3 months.

MARK And I respect that. I mean, that's why were here, isn't it? To exchange ideas. So, how do you see Richard, Mr. Macho?

ELLIOT GARFIELD No, I don't think the guy's a linebacker for the Chicago Bears. But let's not throw away one of his prime motivations.

MARK Oh, and what's that?

ELLIOT GARFIELD He wants to hump Lady Anne!

Also..have you seen "The Tall Guy" with Emma Thompson and Jeff Goldblum and the awesome Rowan Atkinson.

They want to turn Richard into a musical: "I've got a hunch I'm gonna be king!"

It's the one with Roger Reese, done simply (and for...many hours) and with Shakespearean ideals regarding staging, minimal set and exposed process.

So many of the actors play many different parts and they're so...good.

I hope you find it and enjoy.

Recidiva as Don Johnson:

With his celebrity, he managed to land the uber-hot Melanie Griffith. Only problem is that she was 14 at the time. Johnson claimed Griffith was the aggressor in the relationship..

My favorite smackdown to American-style uber-obnoxious Method:

"When Dustin Hoffman was involved with the movie Marathon Man, his character was depicted as looking like he had stayed awake for three nights. Dustin, being a method actor, decided to stay up for three nights in real life in order for it to look more realistic. When he came to the set, Laurence Olivier asked him why he looked so tired and Dustin told him. Then Olivier pauses for a moment, then makes the famous statement, 'Try acting, dear boy...it's much easier'."

Like a mongrel mutt rolling on a rotted corpse. The stench of eyer's "righteousness" fouls the very air.

Although, the part about him only fucking adult sheep was pretty funny. I wonder if the good book gives special dispensation to those who practice beastiality so long as the beast consents to the act.

I'm guessing probably not.

Sir John Gielgud's advice for playing King Lear:

When the actor Michael Hordern asked him for advice, Sir John famously replied, ''All I can tell you is to get a small Cordelia.''

Hi yourself Ms. Reci.

Dreyfus is great in Goodbye Girl, but then he had Neil Simon writing for him.

I have not seen The Tall Guy, but I'll look for it. I love stupid Shakespeare jokes. I have a copy of Shakespeare's Insults and I used to use them at chat when I first came here. Most people were pretty confused by it, which was delightful.

You will love Looking for Richard. I know you will.

I think my favorite play is The Tempest because it's so rich and magical, but I've never seen it on stage and the films fell far short of the read, I thought. Well and Julius Caesar because it's such an accessible play. I've taught it and it's one that you can introduce kids to Shakespeare with and they can get it.

At least you actually did the homework and did watch some Shakespeare.
