Will Shakespeare offers his apologies for not offering a Thought For The Day this weekend.

He's a little hung over. He and Ben Jonson went drinking at one of Phil Henslowe's taverns this weekend, and got a little plotzed.

After he got smashed, he kept saying to Jonson: Stop calling me 'Sweet Swan', will you? The other lads are starting to make fun of me!"

He promises to have a good edition up this coming weekend...

In order to apologize to the evening crowd.

Please offer Will my profound apologies for not having responded sooner........

I was kept away by my foolish irregular heartbeate.........but all is much improved now...

Will is more than entitled to get a little plotzed now and then.

I for one will be eagerly anticipating his upcoming weekend offering.

I kept looking at the lounge page, and kept rechecking.

Whew! I am glad you are ok, and the missing post was for a harmless reason.

Glad to know we can look forward to more great posts from you and our pal, Will.
