    Talking Making light of serious topics.

    I know how people tend to get all hot under the neck and overlty serious about arguments around here recently (maybe we should tyhjink about resurecting the breathe thread?)
    So I thought Id start this thread with a a frendly Hello how are you .

    Now what I want is to discuss things as in what you really think in plain laymasn terms. I dont casre what books say on the sdubject (except in how you inturpret this) I dont care for exact quotations and most of all I DONT WANT to be drowned in copy-paste posts. This might be a good time to say That I belive everyone has a talent and mine is ffor finding loop holes and faults in arguments, so try and drown anyone in this thread in long copied articlesss and Ill wreck your argument and twist the logic so far you won't know your heels from your head. (Consider this a friendly warning )
    Oh and ifd you have to use fancy terms and names explain them to those of us who dont know ook

    SO I was thinking about shakespear recently and I was wondering who you all thought wrote shakespear. ie Who was shakespear?
    Was it marlowe? ANd how cool would that be a spy who was sent to be esecuted changes his name and goes on to be the most famous playwrite of all time? (even hailed by the very people who sentenced him to death?)

    Personally I believe it was a group of playwrights...the spear shakers.

    so give your opinion anyway thatas my point. Do you think shakespear or rather tghe person who wrote the works of shakespear was a tailor no the so of a poor glove maker who couldnnt even write his name?
    Dont you think it must have been someone else?
    Actually I had sort of heard the argument shakespear isnt by shakesprea but then I was studying Faustaus by marlowe and all the similarities stand out. Then there the fact marlowe suddnenly conviently dies in a brawl after he has been accused of treason and within the next year or 2 out pops in the same place an equally amazing playwright, who was newver heard of before?
    isnt it suspious?

    of course papayah you can bring up any topic you want to discuss proberlyy but not seriousl;y if you understand my distinction that is??

    I like that color green, I painted my kitchen that color. Ok, no one else liked it - it is kind of bright.

    (My room at home is green, too. )

    There was a prince some think wrote Shakespeare, because of his educational history and the amount of time he spent in Italy. I can't remember anything else about it, though. Anybody else heard of this?

    Oh I am quite convinced a group of village women who were bored with cooking and baking and changing dirty nappies got together by moonlight when their drunken hubbies were snoring it off from the pub, and they wrote the Shakespearian tales.
    And when others oohed and aahed about the genius of them they smirked and winked at one another as they sat shelling peas under the shade of a chestnut tree.
    It was the best joke ever and none of them had much in the way of schooling only what their dear mums taught them.
    I believe everything is a conspiracy theory. Like the REAL reason Admin set up this forum. ever think about that hmmmmmmm?
