Seriously? That's like naming your daughters Goneril and Regan (which I remember some Buffista mentioning). Trouble right there (in River City).
Bet you it was after Cassius Clay, not Shakespeare.
Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

If I ever adopted two sister cats, I'd totally name them Goneril and Regan! And just what to see who'd turn on the other first...
My brother and his wife have a cat named Cordelia, but I'm not sure if that's a Shakespeare reference or a Buffy/Angel one (it was the cat my sister-in-law brought with her into the relationship).
Cassius is a perfect cat name. And I have met a cat namd Brutus.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I used to have a rat named Brutus. He was named after the rat from NiMH, though.

Because books.
The children have almost convinced me to change the cat's name to Emperor Palpatine. Which isn't Shakespearean, but still.
I figure I can call him Pal.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Fair point. Still. (And now the old barbers from "Coming To America" are doing their thing in my head.)

We have a cat named Hamlet. Self-fulfilling prophecy – he’s a bit on the nutty side and seems to see things that aren’t really there but since we got him as a stray kitten, dunno how he feels about his mom or his uncle!
