Subject: RE: BS: The Zenith of Stupidity!
Heck, Y, I done got me a minor in drama: Early Drama (Sophocles et al.), Medieval Drama (Morality and other things like that), Shakespeare (from both the literary and the drama sides, 2 course), Renaissance Drama (actually folks like Moliere), Modern Drama (Chekov, Ibsen, Odets, and them), Contemporary Drama (Becket and Pinter and others), and Fencing. And I have trodden the boards, even having Top Billing in Shaw ("Androcles" -- cast in order of appearance: A Lion). During my Comps exam I was able to quote verbatim from Aristotle's "Poetics" and other works to show why "King Lear" wasn't an Absurdist comedy -- totally blew the Prof reading the exams away!

'Course, I also got me a minor in Theology and another 'un in Philosophy....
