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."

Watch out if he starts playing with skulls, Dawn. Although ennui-filled Hamlet fits a cat's disposition perfectly.

He is very ennui-filled a lot of the time.

His brother is named Dolce (sweet not designer) and also lives up to his name by being obnoxiously needy all.the.time.

I need to re-read Macbeth so I can find the speech about the graves spitting up their dead. Or whichever play it is. Hell, time to find some portable versions and re-read Shakespeare. I bet they'd fit on my Palm.

Is it "And graves have yawned, and yielded up their dead"? That's Calpurnia's speech about omens in Julius Caesar. Which we spent some time on in school -- there are certainly other possibilities, but it came to mind so what the heck.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Now I'm earwormed with Theo and Cockroach's Julius Caesar rap from The Cosby Show.

Plus at least one poem title I can think of, "Out, Out" by Robert Frost.
