    Not anymore...it is now 4 to 3. I voted yesterday. Since I always find 'Merchant of Venice' a bit difficult. (sorry Payapahed - not even kit kats will help), with the Jewish issues and often heated discussions insue; so I decided to vote safe and went for MWOW...a play I have not yet read.

    I am hoping for it; it is one I have not read yet. I like Falstaff also in Henry IV. He is such a colorful character. It should prove to be a fun read.

    Really, I don't know why I'm doubting and waiting so much if I have no clue about most of S's plays I might as well go with the flow and vote for MWOW , as Merchant of Venice is one of the few I have read.

    If I were to vote, it would be for Merchant, but I do not wish to deprive those wanting to read MWOW (despite my feelings for it) so I may abstain
    I wrote a poem on a leaf and it blew away...

    Only Papaya? Never mind, I voted for it anyway.

    I'm not going to vote since I can't promise I'll have the time to participate, but I'm going to try and be around for this. I like most Shakespeare, so I'm easy in that sense. I look foward to reading with you, and Someone please send me a note on the choice in case I forget to make it back here. The proverbial kick in the bum if you will
