Very cold winters are too hard for Edward it seems.

[The Mad Monk]

Richard III

Gloucester:

Now is the winter of our discontent

Made glorious summer by this sun of York;

And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house

In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.

Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;

Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;

Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings,

Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.

Grim-visaged war hath smooth'd his wrinkled front;

And now, instead of mounting barded steeds

To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,

He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber

To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.

But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks,

Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;

I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty

To strut before a wanton ambling nymph;

I, that am curtail'd of this fair proportion,

Cheated of feature by dissembling nature,

Deformed, unfinish'd, sent before my time

Into this breathing world, scarce half made up,

And that so lamely and unfashionable

That dogs bark at me as I halt by them;

Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace,

Have no delight to pass away the time,

Unless to spy my shadow in the sun

And descant on mine own deformity:

And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover,

To entertain these fair well-spoken days,

I am determined to prove a villain

And hate the idle pleasures of these days.

Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous,

By drunken prophecies, libels and dreams,

To set my brother Clarence and the king

In deadly hate the one against the other:

And if King Edward be as true and just

As I am subtle, false and treacherous,

This day should Clarence closely be mew'd up,

About a prophecy, which says that 'G'

Of Edward's heirs the murderer shall be.

Dive, thoughts, down to my soul: here

Clarence comes.

My only regret reading that was that I thought it was going to be about Gorton's of Gloucester.

i didn't even start this aeson - it was f*face above. oh let me search for pics.

Don't worry, we've been watching you ... you don't have anything to fear unless you've been bad. Or I've been bad. That could be bad too.

[My Wife Hates CIV]

Snowden didn't threaten your security. He just made it clear to everyone how it's being done. Why is that so bad?

ask snowden, even he agrees he should do jail time.

[My Wife Hates CIV]

Don't worry, we've been watching you ... you don't have anything to fear unless you've been bad. Or I've been bad. That could be bad too.

have you now? I might be watching you too.

[ricketyclik]

ask snowden, even he agrees he should do jail time.

I don't think he does, I think he sees that the US government, having had sand thrown in its eyes, won't accept him without some retribution.

[OneFootInTheGrave]

MWHC - I like your drunk posts, but you wanting a guy in jail because he let you and your fellow citizens know about your own governments illegal behaviour is just sad.

Drinking is OK.

This is sad.

[My Wife Hates CIV]

its never been what he did. it's how he did it.

I don't want anyone running off the Russia andchina and god knows who else telling them everything my tax$ have built up over the years.

And if you think snowden saved the world of privacy and no one can look at anything of yours ever again - you must drink more than me!

nope - jail time for mr rghteous. and I still think just jail time is to easy for him.
