Mojo, Will, & Me

 

Today’s Totally Random Lines

 

Speak not so grossly.  – You are all amazed:

 

Portia

The Merchant of Venice       Act V, Scene i, Line 266

 

Well, that’s not the end of the sentence, because she goes on for fourteen lines before coming to a period. No, it’s not a sonnet. She simply explains how she and Nerissa were the doctor and the clerk at the trial (everyone is amazed), and she also has good news about Antonio’s ships. Then, a few more lines down, the story ends. Everyone is happy, the couples all retire to the bedrooms, presumably Antonio is left alone with his good news, and Shylock is long forgotten.

 And that, my friends, is an Elizabethan Comedy.

"Wait a minute," you're saying, "neither of those two look like Mojo."

Well, you're right; and actually there are three. That's Bill Scrapps in the bottom right-hand corner of the picture. Luigi is the light haired guy on my lap, and that's the dark-haired lady Truffles sitting next to him. And that's a stack of Ikea boxes in front of us. 

Why this pic? Well, it is a pretty good explanation of the lack of posts lately. I was visiting Jessica and these guys at Little Broom Farm in Tennessee and helping out with some cabinet construction among other things. It was time well spent, but I'm afraid it kept me away from posting for a while. 

Anyway, I'm back to my own place now, and so back to posting. 

Amazed?
