I learned a valuable lesson from Gilligan’s Island, besides how to make a radio out of a coconut.
“Neither a borrower nor a lender be and don’t forget, stay out of debt.”
Does anyone else remember the Shakespeare play?
Hamlet. Spoken by Polonius to his son Laertes. Incidentally, the music used in that episode came from the opera Carmen.
Produced by Harold Hecuba
Directed by Harold Hecuba
Written by Harold Hecuba
Music by Harold Hecuba
Hey, I first learned some Shakespeare (the lyrics) and opera (the Toreador’s Song music) from Gilligan’s Island, and producer Harold Hecuba:
“There’s just one other thing, you ought to do, to thine own self be truuuuuue!
I also learned about opera from Bugs Bunny:
“Kill the wabbit! Kill the wabbit!”
Yes. I have sung it to my children. Amazingly, I am still alive.
“Think twice and take this good advice from me”
Neither a borrower nor a lender be.
Do not forget. Stay out of debt.
Think twice, and take this good advice from me,
guard that old solvency!
There is one other thing you ought to do:
to thine own self be true!
For those who have forgotten Polonius’ Advice to Laertes:
