Is that lead slow which is fired from a gun?,

-Moth

Love’s Labour’s Lost            Act III, scene i, line 61


No need to get into a whole lot of context here. Moth says as swift as lead, Armado says lead is slow, and Moth replies with today’s Totally Random Line.

Makes sense, n’est pas?

And why, you are asking yourself, are we being treated to a picture of your favorite blogger this morning. What could possibly be the relevance? He doesn't own a gun. He's not particularly swift. What could it be? 
Well, I'll tell you. A subject of today's line is lead, the chemical abbreviation for lead is Pb, and PB just happens to be the initials of whom? 
That's right: the guy in the picture. 
Ahhh, relevance.
