"I like this place and willingly could waste my time in it" - (Hamlet. Act II, Scene IV). Macrumors?

I wonder what he would be writing if her were still alive.

I am sure he would have proven himself to be highly adaptive to modern times. Thus, I believe his words might have been, "New MacBooks next Tuesday, perchance?"

I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'God for Apple, Cupertino, and Saint Steve!'

What do you think? Too geeky? :D

A rainy day indeed. We've had Shakespeare being gobbed out (your fault, dynamicv) and now you come out with a word like "animatronics" !!!!! (Crikey! Just looked it up here - thanks :) )Is all of this the result of global warming or something in the water?

Oh nooooo!!!!! This is all doing my head in. And it's all YOUR (collective) fault. I've just been on the web and looked up Shakespeare AND Shatner. And, of course there is a link. Amusing if nothing else.

It is a rainy, boring day here and I should go out and get a life. :)
