“May the Flesh of Kings Feed the Earth”

King Claudius: Now, Hamlet, where’s Polonius?

Hamlet: At supper.

Claudius: At supper! where?

Hamlet: Not where he eats, but where he is eaten: a certain convocation of politic worms are e’en at him. Your worm is your only emperor for diet: we fat all creatures else to fat us, and we fat ourselves for maggots: your fat king and your lean beggar is but variable service, two dishes, but to one table: that’s the end.

Claudius: Alas, alas!

Hamlet: A man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm.

Claudius: What dost you mean by this?

Hamlet: Nothing but to show you how a king may go a progress through the guts of a beggar.

– William Shakespeare, Hamlet

And Your Point Is, Mitch?

Let’s assume our worst nightmare—the Democrats get the White House, the House, the Senate. The first thing they’ll do is get rid of the filibuster, and you’ll have two new states: D.C., Puerto Rico. That’s four new Democratic senators in perpetuity.” – Mitch McConnell

Let’s do this, kids! Let’s make his worst nightmare a reality!

Such a Cute Lil’ Nugget!

Sony D-ES301

Another one added to the collection. (Ben has his own collections, so we’re good here.)

I ordered this from shopgoodwill.com, as “untested.” What attracted me to it was the fact that the case hadn’t yellowed in relation to the clasp unlike so many of these units that show up on eBay. And that S2 styling! For a couple dollars more than the price of a fast-food lunch I figured it was worth the risk, and if it didn’t work I could put the hours I’ve spent watching YouTube videos on how to service these things to use. Turns out I didn’t need to. It works perfectly.

So of course I had to pop the top panel off the base and peek inside!

Yes, I am a geek.

This is rapidly becoming my favorite of the collection.
