One of my hopes is to visit England some day.<br /><br />I love literature and history and sometimes I think would have been happy as a clam as a teacher or book seller.<br /><br />Happy New Year to you and your family.

Great Minds must follow the same course, I guess. ha,ha. <br /><br />Thanks for providing me with some context in your recent posts to a literary allusion and a biblical allusion that I was already a little familiar with. I teach "Masque of the Red Death" every year, and there's a great line in there where the evil "Red Death" is said to have "out heroded Herod," which I guess is originally from Hamlet. I hadn't put that together with the Feast of the Holy Innocents though...duh. I just hadn't thought about it. And then, I have to brag to you that I've stepped on the spot where Thomas a Becket was murdered..well at least that's what the guide told us:) I remember that supposed quote from that bad old Henry VIII, "Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest," but I feel like I need to see Murder in the Cathedral now.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02782876823581408975noreply@blogger.com
