Alas, let's kill all the lawyers - 'Shakespeare quote' - 120th most famous one

I'm not preaching any Shakespeare fermented dribble, but he does have a point with upstairs quotation. Yet he alas was no doubt laced with opium extracts when the thought arrived; alas, I am not.

The BBC are our preachers, they have been for over the past half century. Their re-enactments of Shakespearian plays are as frequent as losing the dibber; while caste in a body engulfed sofa. There fascination of using Dante's work - oops sorry Shakespeare famous works is rather baffling. It maybe a patriotic claim that he was once British and therefore stands a foot taller than all other more talented writers. Then again maybe the BBC look as if they have forfeited any fees on copyrights since they were established; especially as Shakespeare has long past been late for over 393 years. I can expect such action today as copyright fees would be delayed for at least another 6 months due to the current economic climate. No such thing as a Milky Bar kid surviving on copyright fees on this channel. So, I guess Shakespeare is sighing a huge relief into his snuff-box.

It is tough to get away without having a BBC license these days, now that the database of the whole UK is now available for the licensing enforcers who supposedly roam around in white vans, instead of them doing aimlessly across the UK looking for a lack of a signal from a BBC receptor directly from your analogue TV, the BBC enforcers now keep warm in a box room collecting the BBC license villains and their post-codes. They now have a database of pin-point accuracy like an US bombardment of Basra. The only decision required is who is going to make that knock on the door; no doubt decided by a toss of a Scottish 20.00 GBP note; thorny side-up. - The only problem is the person whose got to move his rear by losing the toss will miss his or her chance of viewing the third repeat of 'New Tricks' - and seeing Waterman moan and wince as per usual with every single character he portrays on the TV, bordering on the alcoholic womanizer he so is, in reality. - That alone is not worth a penny. At least Ken Stotts 'Rebus' carries a thunderous attitude and looks as if he has a nasty hang-over. - It maybe is worth 0.01p to view, or to download.

There currently is a seemingly pointless BBC advert reminding us UK citizens 'that it's all in the database' so no-one is safe from detection. I believe that Big Brother is watching and no for sure that there
