Would you kill for your best friend?
Tuesday, January 31st, 2006Zoe: Doesn’t the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing?
Book: Quite specific. It is however somewhat fuzzier on the subject of knee caps.

Great brick sites
Monday, January 30th, 2006I now realise I was a fool to look for things on ebay when the bricklink has some fab UK shops! Here are two that I like, prices are in dollars but conversion is easy - just type it into google! Seriously cheap and amazing range - you can search for bricks by part or colour or set. Postage also v.cheap.
a brick or more
Happy hunting!

Macbeth Act IV
Sunday, January 15th, 2006This is dedicated to SuperG, in recognition of his dedication to Shakespeare. His request for Othello will have to wait until I can procure a Lando Calrissian, but I have a pretty good Desdemona already.
The three witches are making a disgusting spell. Bleuch!
“By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes!”
Yes, it’s Macbeth. He demands to see evil spirits that will tell him his future.
The first apparition is an armoured head that tells him to beware Macduff.
The second is a bloody child who tells him:
“Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn
The power of man, for none of woman born
Shall harm Macbeth.“
The third is a crowned child holding a tree who says:
“Macbeth shall never vanquish’d be until
Great Birnam wood to high Dunsinane hill
Shall come against him.”
The last apparition upsets Macbeth a tiny bit because it is Banquo showing him all his descendants.
As he is a bit shirty he decides to do another dastardly deed:
“The castle of Macduff I will surprise;
Seize upon Fife; give to the edge o’ the sword
His wife, his babes, and all unfortunate souls
That trace him in his line.”
Macbeth Act V
Sunday, January 8th, 2006Lady Macbeth is being watched by her maid and a doctor. They watch her sleepwalking while she tries to clean her hands and confesses to some of the murders Macbeth has committed.
“Out, damned spot! out I say!”
“More needs she the divine than the physician
God, God forgive us all!”
Macbeth hears a report that the English army is approaching.
Macbeth complains that the doctor cannot heal his wife’s mental illness.
We see his bravery that once made him so renowned as a hero.
“I’ll fight till from my bones the flesh be hacked.”
Lego Macbeth - Things Unravelling Somewhat.
Thursday, January 5th, 2006I’ve decided to continue to do this in reverse order, so it will read in chronological order when you scroll down. Anyone got a lego crown/beard I could borrow for a week or so?
Macduff and Malcolm, the rightful heir to the throne, have joined forces with the English armies to overthrow Macbeth at Dunsinane Castle. They decide to cut down some camoflague from Birnam wood.
“Let every soldier hew him down a bough
And bear’t before him:”
This is a tad inconvenient for Macbeth as it has been prophesied by witches that he will be alright until Birnam wood comes to Dunsinane.
Lady Macbeth, never the most stable woman, has driven herself mad with guilt over all her evil and ends her life.
Macbeth responds:
Out, out, brief
candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Macbeth now hears the news that Birnam wood has come to Dunsinane, and realises he is in a sticky situation. The battle commences.
