@farmerman,
Just repeating what my reading tells me.
If Pee Wee Herman playede Puck in a film, we would still credit Shakespeare with the line "Oh what foods ye morsels be."
From one Facebook friend to another:
Quote:You don't have bigger balls than me... mine had to be put on my chest to avoid chafing.
A gentleman, nurse, that loves to hear himself talk,
and will speak more in a minute than he will stand to in a month.

Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.

I had to visit one of those translation sites to figure out what you were saying, George:
Mix a little foolishness with your prudence: it's good to be silly at the right moment.
Yes, indeed it is!
“I celebrated Thanksgiving in an old-fashioned way. I invited everyone in my neighborhood to my house, we had an enormous feast, and then I killed them and took their land.”

What the hell? Jon Stewart will never be welcome around here, if I have any say in the matter.
Just able barely to mount a horse and ride about a little in the spring of 1866, my life was threatened daily, and I was forced to go heavily armed. The whole country was then full of militia, robbing, plundering and killing.

Oops. I should have linked that directly to edgarblythe's quote.
@edgarblythe,
Are you serious or joking, edgar?
I'm not quite sure.
@msolga,
Joking, olga. Sorry if I confused you.
