    This or That?

    (Over my brief life, I've had three different, favorite colors. First it was blue, then I switched to green, and recently I've favored Purple. Purple is my favorite color because to me it displays strength and boldness, as well as being mysterious. It makes me think of the long gone Roman senate which I love very much. It also reminds me of royalty and helps make me feel important when I feel otherwise. But don't get me wrong I'm not self centered. :sweat: )

     

    Hamlet, it reminds me of Ham, mmmm ham.

     

    A cold breeze, or a warm, summer wind?

    Edit i take, edit I do.

    Both plays of Shakespeare's plays mean something to me. "A Midsummer Night's Dream" what fools in love do in that verbal artwork of comedy and magic (My words here are inadequate to express what inner joy I feel seeing, hearing or reading that play). "Hamlet price of Denmark" another verbal artwork of drama and inner pain what injustice can do to a soul.

    ....and by the way I've got a good recipe of Irish Stew for your ham. :thumbsup:

    and another one

     

    A bus full of old Irish men and women was driving on a highway in Germany.

    Suddenly there was a panel with a big arrow and the word "AUSFAHRT".

    Fifty kilometers away there was another panel with the same arrow and the

    word "AUSFAHRT".

    Fifty kilometers away there was another panel, the same one; and one of

    the old travellers touched the elbow of his neighboor and said

    "Well, it's must be a big town !"

    One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub

    together. The proceeded to each buy a pint of Guinness. Just as they

    were about to enjoy their creamy beverage three flies landed in each

    of their pints, and were stuck in the thick head.

    The Englishman pushed his beer away from him in disgust.

    The Scotsman fished the offending fly out of his beer and continued

    drinking it as if nothing had happened.

    The Irishman too , picked the fly out of his drink, held it out over

    the beer and then started yelling "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU

    male without a father!!!!"

    An old one from the time of cold but sometimes not so cold war. And it's about the German Bundeswehr (military).

     

    What is the German Bundeswehr good for?

     

    The German Bundeswehr is only good for, to stop the enemy just as long, till real military arrives.

    GLOUCESTER:

    Now is the winter of our discontent

    Made glorious summer by this sun of York;

    And all the clouds that lour'd upon our house

    In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.

    Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths;

    Our bruised arms hung up for monuments;

    Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings,

    Our dreadful marches to delightful measures.

    Grim-visaged war hath smooth'd his wrinkled front;

    And now, instead of mounting barded steeds

    To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,

    He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber

    To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.

    But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks,

    Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;

    I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty

    To strut before a wanton ambling nymph;

    I, that am curtail'd of this fair proportion,

     

    Cheated of feature by dissembling nature,

    Deformed, unfinish'd, sent before my time

    Into this breathing world, scarce half made up,

    And that so lamely and unfashionable

    That dogs bark at me as I halt by them;

    Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace,

    Have no delight to pass away the time,

    Unless to spy my shadow in the sun

    And descant on mine own deformity:

    And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover,

    To entertain these fair well-spoken days,

    I am determined to prove a villain

    And hate the idle pleasures of these days.

    Richard III Act 1 Sceen 1

    But this trial has shown that under the stress of a national crisis, men — even able and extraordinary men — can delude themselves into the commission of crimes and atrocities so vast and heinous as to stagger the imagination. No one who has sat through this trial can ever forget. The sterilization of men because of their political beliefs... The murder of children... How easily that can happen! There are those in our country today, too, who speak of the 'protection' of the country. Of 'survival'. The answer to that is: 'survival as what?' A country isn't a rock. And it isn't an extension of one's self. It's what it stands for, when standing for something is the most difficult! Before the people of the world — let it now be noted in our decision here that this is what we stand for: justice, truth... and the value of a single human being!
