Conversation:

Mr. Boomer: Do you validate?

Quick witted woman at the desk: Why, yes, I do. You are a good, fine, handsome man.

(Then, of course, she validated the parking.)

We all cracked up laughing together. A fun memory.
Nothing less than a good story!

You must have heard of Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, MacBeth, Richard III, Henry V, The Taming of the Shrew, Othello, and some of the other ones. Phrases from these pop up in many movies, books and even ads. And not for NOTHING.

This scene from Henry V is quite moving. Henry V - Speech - Eve of Saint Crispin's Day - HD - YouTube

This one is also good. Henry V - Learning English Scene - YouTube

We just got back from looking at a house on Conservation Trail. I have NOTHING to say other that Wowzer! How could two people possibly need that much room? I'm thrilled for those people that we looked at it for from Jersey. They came and visited us last year and made the decision to bust a move.

They have two wonderful daughters who they hope visit often. I told them they better hope they do and change their names to Hazel. That's a whole lotta house to clean. They may do it. Perfect Friends from our entire life far enough away that we can remain Perfect Friends. If they're happy that's all that counts.

Mrs. Nucky said its off Conservation Trail but it's in the Hood over there. Really nice. Paver Heaven, The Thick Expensive, Good Ones.
