Now Dolly,
I thought we were going to be civil.
Happy New Year Doll.
Yes I love Shakespeare. I was Juliet after all.

No, YOU are going to be civil. I am going to be my usual self.
So you played Juliet. Too bad your death scene wasn't more authentic.

To the Dreary Corine:
No, my Shakespearean roles have been Hamlet, Iago, Macbeth, and Friar Lawrence in the aforementioned ROMEO AND JULIET.

I want to thank Shermanslave for calling to my attention an egregious spelling error. I have corrected it. However, there were no set spelling rules in Shakepeare's time and you'll find that the final "e" in his name is missing on his Baptismal Certificate which is on display at the Trinity Church in Stratford-Upon-Avon.
Now Corine, you claim to have played one of the "weird sisters" in MACBETH. In your case the word "witch" should be spelled with a "b" rather than the customary "w". You are physically right for the role because one of your two boyfriends has told me you have whiskers.
By the way, I've been meaning to ask Corine what color lipstick she wears in her photographs. Judging from the way her photo appears on my computer, it seems as though she's wearing Crayola Red. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Good one!
Since by "writer" we mostly mean columnists, I would have to say my favorite male writer is Libby Gelman-Wexner.
