Thanks for that, Aristus :thumbsup:

Is there a link to that, or is it from a desk calendar? I'd like to post this elsewhere, con su permiso.

14. No Richardo. WSTFTD is something I do on my own.
I take a quote from Will Shakespeare, marry it to an image of (usually) some right-winger in the news, and see how apropo I can make it. The idea itself is not original; MAD Magazine did it a number of times. For example: "William Shakespeare, Political Pundit." "William Shakespeare, Movie Critic." "William Shakespeare, Music Critic," and so on.

But the image-and-quote combinations for WSTFTD are mine. But since Shakespeare's work is in the public domain, and the images are readily available from Google Images, you don't need my permission to reproduce them elsewhere. Plus, if you did, I'd be honored and flattered. B-)
