I am so looking forward to meeting all of you, and reconnecting with names I haven't heard in way too long. Anyway, Kathryn, your email reminded me of an ol time fiddler named Michael Cooney who sings (or sang) a 3-minute Hamlet that is a really witty summary of the entire play. I found it on youtube as well, and enclosed the lyrics in case everyone feels it is worth pursuing or at least remembering! Anyway, it's worth the 3 minutes it takes to listen to the tune.

Oh my,
I too am awed and impressed with the input thus far, the ideas are almost
overwhelming.... some of the references I know, and many others I have't had
the pleasure (or time recently) to familiarize myself. But,

Let me say, the Canadian TV show, "Slings and Arrows" can very easily be
found on youtube.com, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owfeSoW-DmY. (Here is
the link to episode 1 of Season 1, or first part anyway...they annoyingly
divide the episodes into 7.5 min segments, but, we must endure) Anyhow,
youtube seems to include all of Season 1-3. This is the first episode with
the cheeky Hamlet song shortly after the introductory bits and credits.
Check it out. I never heard of it til now and am still smiling......

More indepth input to follow.....
love to all,
kathy
