well i bought a lighter 2 day as a source of light since i didint have enough for flashlight.so i climbed up a bookshelf to see whats inside this little hole.BOOM!i have to heavy for the shelf and it fell.books were everywhere.as i picked them up,i noticed we had ALOT of thrillers.i thought,if there are some here,there must be more on the other shelves!i looked through them all and found some thrillers,and some damn intresting things.dracula,dr jekyll and Mr. hyde,even a french dictionary:Pthen i came accross A midsummer night's dream.this was 1 of the 3 plays i knew made by shakespeare.i sampled the reading and loved it.i now have intrest in shakespeare.could this be the beginning of end,or the end of the beginning?or did i just found a new intrest?who knows...

Good stuff Katana, Shakespeare is quality reading. Of course I'm an English teacher and therefore v.biased.
I don't think its a problem until you start walking aroung saying things like"Verily fore soothe how art thou?", however I've discovered that chicks like it when you can quote chunks (the romantic bits obviously) from Romeo and Juliet to them, by heart. Makes them turn all soft and mallable

I was very lucky as I was put in a low ability group for English at school. We were considered to stupid to cope with the Bard. As a consequence I love it whereas my friends who had to study it and write essays think that it's a load of pants.

PS, I'm sure you are a better teacher Ozzy!!!!
