2. How hard is he biting his tongue, to summon up those croc tears?
Perfect picture for a very relevant quote, though.

4. I freakin' HATE it when he does his crying thing.
He tries twice as hard as Bill Clinton to show us all how much he "cares", and with ten times less sincerity.

Clinton took a lot of heat for "I feel your pain", but you always knew he meant it.

6. Thank you, CalPeg.
Having appreciative visitors makes me try harder to make WSTFTD good. Shakespearean invective is powerful stuff, but it would be too easy to marry up any old quote with any old picture. I want to make it sharp and witty. You guys make it worth it. :grouphug:

5. What can I say? You have a sublime way of making Willie the Shake
speak appropriately to us today.

Thanks again!

8. Thank you, Aristus. I think the only pain he feels is his own.
