On arrival in London, I made some substantial updates to my ridiculous Shakespearean Insult Machine: github.com/sanbeiji/lot... A few days later in the Westminster Abbey gift shop, I found this sheet of magnetic Shakespeare insult magnets. If this isn't divine providence, I don't know what is.

A sheet of Shakespearean insult magnets. Here's the entire list of quotes:

There is not ugly a fiend of hell as thou shalt be... - King John
affable wolves... - Timon of Athens
Out, you green-sickness carrion! - Romeo and Juliet
detested parasites - Timon of Athens
thy poison... - Henry VI, Part II
Bolting-hutch of beastliness. - Henry IV, Part I
meek bears... - Timon of Athens
The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes. - Coriolanus
How ill white hairs become a fool and a jester!... - Henry IV, Part II
...So surfeit-swell'd, so old and so profane. - Henry IV, Part II
Your breath first kindled the dead coals of wars... - King John
thou speak'st false... - Comedy of Errors
Thou crusty batch of nature. - Troilus and Cressida
Could I come near your beauty with my nails... - Henry VI, Part II
...I'd set my ten commandments in your face. - Henry VI, Part II
..upon the next tree shalt thou hang alive, till famine cling thee. - Macbeth
Thou smell of mountain goat. - Henry V
She is spherical, like a globe. I could find out countries in her. - The Comedy of Errors
Better a witty fool than a foolish wit. - Twelfth Night
...cream faced loon. - Macbeth
...gibes and notable scorns that dwell in every region of his face. - Othello
Out of my sight! Thou dost infect my eyes. - Richard III
Thou cream-faced loon. Where got'st that goose look? - Macbeth
Hide not thy poison with such sugar'd words. - Henry VI, Part II
My tongue will tell the anger of my heart. - The Taming of the Shrew
Thou elvish-mark'd, abortive, rooting hog. - Richard III
Out, you baggage! You tallow face! - Romeo and Juliet
If I prove honey-mouth'd, let my tongue blister. - The Winter's Tale
...a foolish wit. - Twelfth Night
...he is only an animal - Love's Labour's Lost
Scratching could not make it worse... such a face as yours. - Much Ado About Nothing
...as dull as night. - The Merchant of Venice
I was searching for a fool when I found you. - As You Like It

Feral Pear Butter from the Oak Rock Animal Preserve. They put out a bunch of products for sale by the Finley Road Trailhead. I ride my mountain bike past this spot all the time, and finally stopped to purchase something. The wild pear logo is too cute!

Mike Johnson and the rest of the obtuse GOP fat cats in Washington are completely out of touch with the American people. Their idea of patriotism is supine acquiescence to authoritarian rule, and they react like spoiled babies when challenged. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The rattlesnakes are definitely out today. This one was signing himself on the trail, and I almost ran over him because it looked suspiciously like the sticks nearby. I counted maybe six to eight rattles, from a safe distance of course.
