He might be a lil upset that u spelt his name wrong :(

Re: If Shakespere was alive today?
 

If you look into it he never spelt his name the same twice :)

No he wouldn't he'd have learnt English at a comprehensive school, which means his parents would have been proud if he could even write his name when he goes to sign on!:p

From "A Midsummer Night's Dream"

I know a bank whereon the beer can blows
Where nettle and the creeping green-mold grows.
There supermarket trollies spend the night
All covered with chewed burgers and dog sh!te.

W Shakespeare, 2006

i would sit him down infront of morcambe & wise reruns and slap him until he got a real understanding of what comedy is :)

A bit unfair, Chav - you've obviously never seen the right productions. I saw "The Merry Wives of Windsor" at Stratford and we were rolling in the aisles.

Will someone translate this pleased aint got a clue it makes as much sence as running around the Antartic in trunks and nowt else. :confused:

'Ask me no reason why I love you; for though
Love use Reason for his physician, he admits him
not for his counsellor. You are not young, no more
am I; go to then, there's sympathy: you are merry,
so am I; ha, ha! then there's more sympathy: you
love sack, and so do I; would you desire better
sympathy? Let it suffice thee, Mistress Page,--at
the least, if the love of soldier can suffice,--
that I love thee. I will not say, pity me; 'tis
not a soldier-like phrase: but I say, love me. By me,
Thine own true knight,
By day or night,
Or any kind of light,
With all his might
For thee to fight, JOHN FALSTAFF'
What a Herod of Jewry is this! O wicked
world! One that is well-nigh worn to pieces with
age to show himself a young gallant! What an
unweighed behavior hath this Flemish drunkard
picked--with the devil's name!--out of my
conversation, that he dares in this manner assay me?
Why, he hath not been thrice in my company! What
should I say to him? I was then frugal of my
mirth: Heaven forgive me! Why, I'll exhibit a bill
in the parliament for the putting down of men. How
shall I be revenged on him? for revenged I will be,
as sure as his guts are made of puddings.

It was so moving. Not a tear was shed for Diana, but Queenie blubbed her lil eyes out in public for the first time when Britannia was decommissoned, bless.

maybe she cried for the ship because it hadnt had as many sailors as diana ?

Re: If Shakespere was alive today?
 

And that the title grammatically should read: "If Shakespeare were alive today" (subjunctive tense or summat like that).
