Yeah, I got to read tomorrow's Seattle Times when I was there. I could have made a fortune in the WA lottery. LOL

I read a lot of Eng. Lit as where I picked that up and can lapse into mid-19th cent English (Dickens, Post, etc) or American - the American part from reading everything that Mark Twain wrote. I would entertain the folks with Mark Twain quotes when certain occasions called for it.

WOW!

You are so well read Skydancer.

Getting late here in KC.

Going to be on this good news.

Good luck in the past *wink*

And Congratulations to OZ's Queen that she has a Country again. And Most Importantly, the U.K. people as well.

This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars
This other Eden, demi-paradise
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war
This happy breed of men, this little world
This precious stone set in the silver sea
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house
Against the envy of less happier lands...
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England

(Shakespeare, King Richard II, Act 2, Scene 1
