Scottish kings were often elected. they didn't necessarily inherit by birthright. This breaking of the chain of being is more English than Scottish.

I think it has to be done in the dark because, to me anyway, the biggest crime is that he killed a guest - who happened to be a king.

In a practical sense, killing Duncan offstage would/could also have been done to not ruffle the feathers of Royalty watching the play.

reminds me of Hamlet's ghost. Do we choose to believe what we cannot or do not want to comprehend? It also leads the viewer to "plotting" - obviously they are up to something and will meet again. All the times mentioned for meeting would keep others away and are omens/ominous.

The dentist office website has been updated. Don't see that on their website unless it's somewhere else.

No moment of any play in particular. I always started Shakespeare by filing the board with old slang terms and asked them which ones they knew. Then I told them to get over the language. Always started Lear with "The girl who loved her father like salt" or similar: sites.pitt.edu/~dash/salt.h...

"It is an honour that I dream no of" from R and J. Usually when I'm asked to do something that I don't want to do. Many from Lear (They shall be the terrors of the earth, for example)

His boss hasn't resigned from the multiple scandals. If his boss doesn't have the ethics to resign, why should he?

How come 'captain canada' was shopping at home depot?? Rona is the Canadian company. Or home hardware. Hypocrite.

Of course all of this after the 'informative' mandated webinar this morning? We heard about the "second first day of school" for elementaries and I immediately thought of you. Get good rest on the weekend.

Don't they realize that for many of us this is not a hardship?
