Two months? Really?

According to Blogger, the last time I published a post was November 7th, 2008. Two months is a long time between posts, but I did accomplish some stuff in December. Like passing the prelim.

I was playing on Icanhascheezburger.com last week, and ran across their sister site, Once Upon A Win, which features all the cool stuff from when we (whoever "we" is; there seem to be some assumptions about audience being made) were kids. Now, I never really liked VH1's I love the 80s (or 90s, or whatever), but this site makes me actually remember stuff, which is interesting in and of itself. It also reminds me that I am getting old.

Aside from fears that I may cease to be, the site provides links to some of that cool stuff. One such link sent me to a few MadLibs-esque sites that allow you to play that wonderful word game all day, no pens required. While some of it turned out quite silly, my reproduction of Hamlet's soliloquy had some good moments, which I have edited together here.

Oh, and a note about engrishfunny.com: Some of those "errors" are really quite lovely, such as "from time to time, the usual moment seems terribly beautiful."

Soliloquy
When we have washed off this mortal thief,
when we have found that dread of something after restlessness,
then we will know those ills we have
and prattle on to others that we know not of.

Thus conscience does make writers of us all
And thus the flattened hue of resolution
Is plated over with the passive wrench of thought.
And we are ordered, missives all:
To carry out the first stage of
(a lawsuit, for example): filed charges against your lover.
To march or quilt in a line.
To put items in a crate.
To make application; to elate.
To open one's name to a sterling contest
of will, of hope, of daily rendered love.
