No.

I always identify the source of a quote. Intellectual honesty & all. I confess to being fussy about this point.

And **Silver Fire**? I believe that it was that way in the play. 4 lines.

I used mine again for the first time in ages today. Here it is again, just for fun. I like the second line better.

Mine’s pretty cool. I think. I don’t usually use a sig so I don’t remember what it is.

Well, you **could** lose the comma between Shakespeare and _Julius_. Unnecessary commas make the Baby Jesus cry:)

How about mine?

In another thread a lot of people asked about one of my old sigs:

“Of course,” Said my Grandfather, pulling a gun from his belt as he stepped from the Time Machine, “There’s no paradox if _I_ shoot _you_!”

They keep asking who wrote it. I find this gratifying, since I did. Maybe I should re-instate it as my sig.
