Donna,

Good one, but do you mean the opposite of reneged? It sounds like she exceeded her vow.

NOT 2B WASN'T MEANT 2B!

Prince Hamlet of Denmark told a group of troubled schoolchildren today that soon after his father was murdered, he became so depressed that he almost committed suicide. "I held the bare bodkin in my hands and weighed my options," Hamlet recalled as the children took turns holding the bodkin in question under their teacher's careful supervision.

"Life was painful. My feeling were hurt when my mother remarried. I blamed my uncle. I thought, what's the use? Why not just end it all? And I almost did. But do you know what saved me?" The children demanded to know. "Here's the thing," Prince Hamlet said in voice that was almost a whisper. "Exactly what happens when you're dead? Nobody knows. It may be even worse than the stuff that happens when you're alive. I couldn't risk it."

YUMMY?

A huge white whale named Moby Dick today admitted to having chomped off the leg of a certain Captain Ahab. "I have no regrets," Moby told reporters, "except that his shoe leather was rancid and tasted like week-old squid.”

But what would drive even a wild, untamed beast to do something so despicable? According to Moby, he much prefers plankton to human flesh, but Captain Ahab was armed with an enormous harpoon and would have hurled it through his eye or up his blow-hole unless he acted quickly. He did what he had to do to defend himself. "It's not as if I was just swimming around in the ocean looking for a crazy old coot to munch on," Moby joked. "I've got much bigger fish to fry."

Tara, I love those dactyls. Do you know, I've never seen the film or read the book.

Thanks, John. Wow, the book I can understand, but the movie? It's been playing on TV in the U.S. for 50 years straight.

I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of good ones for this comp.

John, you're not missing a thing. What a snoozer the movie is. I guess if I were a more positive person I would have just said that the movie is very, very relaxing.
