New days and new opportunities burst forth, and suddenly come into being.

How welcomed after the long dark.

Oh, that we may see them.

    It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
    Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
    Who is already sick and pale with grief
    That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she.

    @Jeff: Shouldn't that be: But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?

    Softly, a 'more awkward' thread title maketh me to inquire.

    And more closely doth I attention pay!

      Feeling a bit poetic today boys?

      I like it.

      How merry it doth make my heart
      to see men practice poetic prose,
      a lost, but beautiful form of art.

        This forum so full of surprises!
        My heart concealed by faint disguises.
        But one thing my head denies is...
        the warm embrace of soulful patronizes.

        :rolleyes:

            Oh, that we may see them.
            Try washing the windows - the light will break in better.

      Sorry Val.

      But peeps or people just wouldn't have fit. Or maybe I'm just out of sorts today due to the splitting headache I just can't shake.

      Haha, I do know that's neither nor you in your avatar as my dad had that pic as his wallpaper on his computer.

        To quote, or not to quote, that is the question.
        Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer
        The slings and arrows of outrageous posting
        Or to take arms against a sea of members
        And by opposing end them: to quote, to write
        No more, and by a quote, to say we end
        The heart-ache, and the thousand natural posts
        That forums are heir to?

    @Alexa: Not sure how Hamlet got connected to Romeo and Juliet, but since we're going in that direction:

    To cook, or not to cook, that is the question.
    Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
    The ground beef or broiled chicken of outrageous home cooking,
    Or to take forks against a sea of take out, dine out or pot luck,
    And by opposing them, end?
    To dine, to eat, to be bored,
    No more; and by a home-cooked meal to say we end
    The stomach-ache, and the thousand indigestions.
    That flesh is heir to, ’tis a consummation
    Devoutly to be wisht.
