“Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it. I answer all my children’s letters — sometimes very hastily — but this one I lingered over. I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote, “Dear Jim: I loved your card.” Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.” That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything. He saw it, he loved it, he ate it.”
We remember Maurice Sendak, who passed away today at the age of 83.

anyone else bought a subscription to lovefilm only to then be miffed about the very small selection of films and tv shows they actually have?
I disagree - I had that with Netflix, their selection was so crap I scotched it in favour of Lovefilm. I do wish they had more stuff on Instant, but I find that if it’s not online it’s at least on DVD which is better than nothing.
That said, I’m led to believe the libraries of both are improving significantly
Okay, hang on, when do we learn Romeo’s age? That aside - yes, you’re right, and the story is ABSOLUTELY NOT romantic in any Hallmark card sense of the word. But it sure as hell is passionate.*SLOW CLAP*
OH MY GOD :D
We read the book in 12th grade for finals and apparently I was the only one actually paying attention (also, I’d read it first when I was 11) because I more or less SAID THIS and was met with disbelieving stares and protests from my classmates and an A+ from my teacher :D
yeah.
I don’t know about Romeo but when Juliet’s parents are talking about marrying her off they mention she’s going to be turning 13 soon.
It’s really more of a story of stupidity really. The older people continuing a feud for no reason and the younger people being stupid in various other ways.
“Never was there a tale of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.”

I’d say this fairly sums up my life at the minute…
I’m so glad this isn’t just me. I still can’t get over being knocked back for an internship a year and a half ago :(
