Mr. Fogarty: "Did Shakespeare really write all these plays? Some say Francis Bacon wrote "Hamlet" Mr. Fogarty: "Or Edward De Vere. Did he have a role in creating the Danish Prince?" Mr. Fogarty: "The answers lie in the dark mists of history. Let's let Shakespeare rest in peace" Luann: "I don't get it! I look detailed notes!"
Besides, what does Shakespeare have to do with pumping gas, selling pizza, or pouring concrete? It only gives English teachers a job. Understanding Shakespeare is a full time job, like understanding Chaucer—be aware, but both don’t show up in polite conversation. It’s really too much for a freshman to comprehend. Better to learn the philosophies of American Indian tribes as a freshman, to take with you through life!! Ever try to impress a girl with your understanding of Shakespeare, or put that on a resume? The employer would think you were a snob!!!!! Anyway, you don’t need a resume to deliver pizza!SAD! Besides, Shakespeare is a foreigner!!
