Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
The latter would be awesome to see! Huge A-framed gridwork constructions - attended by hereditary guilds of pontifex-engineers - shunting up and down vast artificial valleys for some arcane reason. Then massive over-built steam engines holding the last vestiges of a collapsed civilisation roar across them.
Impractical, but kewl: it's the Steampunk way.

I had the same thing, with the same damned eyelid! For two weeks! And I could notice it just by feeling it.

But it's gone now. And I'm all right.
All right...

*grumble*
So, my little cousin and uncle are here. Me and little cousin play catch, and she's running about, having fun, and smashing into things. We go downstairs, and she's acquired a big bump on her forehead, which she hasn't noticed. When my uncle notices it, blames me, and puts ice on her head, then she gets upset. And is crying. When I come into talk to her, and play, she calms down, but my uncle keeps looking at me like I'm the devil's spawn.
*grumble*

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
Admittedly, we did Romeo and Juliette, and the fact that I hate romance probably didn't help things (he always seemed to go over the top when describing things as well).

Well...we have...bridges over many of our train tracks...and...they aren't anything like your description.
And: WHY do I always confuse you, bosssmiley, with Dr. Bath? I don't know why! It's starting to irk me because I read along for a while and then I'm like " this doesn't sound like Bath..." and then, "this isn't Bath!"
Just...to let you know.

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
I'd much rather be doing Romeo and Juliet than Henry V...
Although the Tempest would be fun as well. As would Midsummer Night's Dream. Why did we have to do Richard III and Henry V, two extremely boring plays?"I'm just going on motive and opportunity here and the fact that if the earth got swallowed by a black hole, I'd look suspiciously in your direction first."

Although I sometimes disguise myself as Dr Bath for the purposes of tax evasion, insurance fraud and blackmail. That might be the source of your confusion.

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
Ahhh, I love German. It's got all these concise, specific phrases and words. Schadenfreude, for instance, but, my favourite so far, "Zwei deppen, ein gedanke."
EDIT: What is all this about trains over/under bridges? I don't see what's so special. Is there some phallic symbolism you guys see that I don't?Last edited by randman22222; 2008-10-19 at 10:08 AM.

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
I have, of course, seen a lot of Shakespeare in the theatre in the UK. Possibly too much, if I'm ever forced to sit through another appalling version of 'Midsummer Night's Dream' I shall probably scream.
Some of it was wonderful though. Saw a fantastic version of 'The Merchant of Venice' in Greenwich Observatory garden last summer. (Does a garden count as a theatre?)
I've also seen Shakespeare in the theatre in Shanghai. We went to 'The Taming of the Shrew' last week. Very fun.

I like the Settle-Carlisle railway, very scenic. In fact (if I am remembering the correct railway) so scenic that the cows never see any other trains, and since the railway only runs fairly infrequently, are absolutely terrified of them. Hee hee hee! Running cows are funny looking.

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
Romeo and Juliet is overrated.
I loved the little bit of Henry V we did in Y11; we did it to compare Henry from there and from Henry IV part I.
Anway, Romeo and Juliet is qite over the top, but I've heard the comedy is good. But I'm still lad I've never done it; I read somewhere that's it's the most studied Shakespeare play done in schools. Macbeth's one of the most read as well, did it in Y9.
Richard III is a fair bit boring, plus now I've actually done coursework (rather in depth too) on him and his reign I feel sympathy for him. Richard III is pure propaganda.
The Tempest, my brother's done and I want to do, same with Midsummer Night's Dream; I'll be using extracts from that for my E Lang coursework though so all's good.
Now, remember what you said about mimes? Vetinari and I feel the same way about them. Hang 'em upside down in the scorpion pit with LEARN THE WORDS painted on the wall.
Mimes are scary.
Bathatar!
Squid bones are lies.

Re: Aziraphales Actually Alliterative And Awesomely Affluent Random Banter #104
I did Macbeth, Much Ado About Nothing, Romeo and Juliet and a bit of Hamlet.
The comedy in Romeo and Juliet's great, and dirty. Shakespeare was a pervert.
