No. Beth Shakespear writes great trashy novels. She also wrote a kid's book about a baby shrew who dreamed she was a dormouse. You'd like it.

Had to come up with sumptin'. Too late to fix it now.

To 'e' or not to 'e' - that is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler in the thread to edit
The slips and typos of outrageous fingers
Or take aim with witty repartee
And by outsnarking, deflect them...

What light through yonder browser window breaks? It is the internets, and fair Frau Kaleun is the sun. Too bad I have to minimize it so I can work on homework for a few minutes, rather than screwing around on subsim. Fate is a cruel mistress.

OTOH I still know a hawk from a handsaw, so I got that goin' for me.

The truth is I'm so Shakespeare-challenged that it wasn't until a couple of decades ago when I saw the BBC version of MacBeth with Jeremy Brett that I know where the legendary quote on alcohol "increaseth the desire while it decreaseth the performance" came from.
