Excellent Well
You are a fishmonger.
Fishing for kittenz...
Not I, my lord.
Then I would you were so honest a man.
Honest, my lord!
Ay, sir; to be honest, as this world goes, is to be one man picked out of ten thousand.

There should have been cats in "Hamlet."
I'd wager if Ophelia had a cat she wouldn't have ended up in the drink. Of course, that would have disrupted the plot but Will could have figured it out.

Ah, but if there were cats in Hamlet, they would have died too...everyone dies in Hamlet!

You got a point there, MercuryX23. No messing with "Hamlet."

There was a cat in "The Adage", IIRC. I can't remember what became of him though.

One of my college classmates, who later in life went on to become Comptroller of the City of Houston, wrote a parody musical called "Hello Hamlet," which was by tradition performed at Rice at least once every four years. (There's no way it could be published, because of the copyright vultures.) What brought it to my mind now is the scene at the end of the parody, in which each character in turn drops dead... after singing his/her own couplet to the tune of "So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehn, goodbye..." Somehow, I believe old Will would have approved.
