Can't sleep

Woke up from a dream in which I had discovered the best internet application ever. Was thinking about how I wanted to post a link to it on my blog or facebook when the clarity of the dream started to fade. I realized that I had made it all up in my dream, and that I could no longer remember what this most perfect web application had done. The details went fast and I was just left with the feeling that it was clever and funny and useful and that if I could just remember I could then make the best website ever. You know how it goes when you try desperately to remember dreams...nothing.

This post was brought to you, courtesy of my G1 phone and Blogger's email function, from my comfy bed in the middle of the night.

Macbeth: The Graphic Novel

I don't think I have attempted to read a Shakespeare play since high school, but I could not pass up this graphic novel version when I passed it by at the library. Macbeth is the source of some of the most heard Shakespeare quotes which you may not realize are Shakespeare.

"Double double toil and trouble, fire burn and cauldron bubble."

and

"Out damned spot! Out I say!"

Classical Comics, publishes three versions: one with the complete original text, one with the complete play translated into plain english, one with the complete play translated into modern english. I read the original text version and was impressed at how much the comic book conventions added to my comprehension of the story and still allowed me to enjoy the poetry of Shakespeare.

Click on this scans of the pages that contain the above famous quotes to see larger versions.
