Marriage is Great Juno's Crown

So, something on yahoo news caught my attention a few minutes ago. Many of you know my great love of Shakespeare. Many of you also share my great love of another foreign authors, who are nearly as amazing in their use of wit, literary timing and poetic genius. I refer of course to the Barenaked Ladies. Well, the marriage of two of my greatest poetic loves has finally arrived. The Barenaked Ladies are composing original music for Shakespeare's "As You Like It" to be performed at this years Stratford Shakespeare Festival. I assure you I will be attending. Feel free to read the news story below:

Other things that are making me happy right now...
I crack up everytime I see Geico's suite of "Caveman" commercials. Brilliant. Also, I save over 55% by switching to Geico. The two things are unrelated. I switched my insurance before these commercials aired.
I watched Comedy Central's new game show Distraction this afternoon. As a game show, most of it is just "enh", but the thing that really made me happy... after they narrow it down to the last contestant who wins a brand-new car, that contestant has to answer five questions. For every question he/she gets wrong, the three people who lost get to damage the car. The one I saw tonight, they got to poor paint all over the roof and bash in the windshield with a sledge hammer, all while the "winner" watches his brand new car be destroyed. Now THAT is funny.

That's all for me right now. Later

Pardon me while I go "OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!"
My favorite band in the whole wide world along with my second favorite story teller (Chaucer holding the title) how can this be bad? I may have to take a trip in April up North. This will be too cool to miss!

Thank you Adam for showing me the coolness!!
