    Drama gets 2941 cool points for veganism.

    I think it's extraordinarily sad that there are now 2943 posts on the Litnetwork's forums that have absolutely nothing to do with discussing Literature.

    Aww let us have SOME fun Silv! We all need a little break from intense literary analysis, as fun as that is.

    2944 thank yous for the cool points cuppa!
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    *sniff* but for the 2945th time I wonder why nobody discusses Shakespeare's sonnets. I know the answer now.

    Shakespeare's sonnets are wonderful beyond words. I will be happy to share at least 2946 words about them with you Silv!

    If you are like me and could read each 2949 times over I am sure you will reconsider your estimation Do you like Shakey, B-Mental?

    Well the first 2950 times I did, but I feel like his works are sort of overead by myself. Only a couple now that really impress me still, and I don't know why. And you Drama?

    I am excited to read every word Shakespeare has written! Sometimes a bit dissapointed, but very very rarely. If he had written 2951 i would probably read them all. My favorite is 116 though.
