How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

No Thank You, Mr. McAdoo

liDoubtful if I would have watched the Emmys had I not been cruelly hungover, but at least was rewarded by one of the finer award show acceptance speeches. Gregory Thomas Garcia, who won for best writing (My Name is Earl) listed off those who he most definitely did not wish to share the award with:
My eighth-grade social studies teacher who told me to sit down and shut up because I wasn't funny. No, thank you Mr. McAdoo.

We can only hope that McAdoo had tuned in for the broadcast...
