Your result for The Which Shakespeare Play Are You? Test...
Much Ado About...
You scored 15% = Tragic, 51% = Comic, 38% = Romantic, 25% = Historic

You Scored Much Ado About Nothing! First published in 1600, Much Ado About Nothing is one of Shakespeare's most enduring comedies, and probably his most performed to this day. Much Ado About Nothing tells the story of two pairs of would-be lovers and the hysterical events that happen surrounding the wedding. As Claudio and Hero prepare to marry, Don Pedro and his friends, bored with the length of preparation time, take it upon themselves in the meantime to play matchmaker to Benedick and Beatrice, two sharp-tongued would-be lovers whose love for each other is masked by the "merry war of words" in which they are engaged that both of them are too stubborn to lose. Based on your results, we believe you to be a quick-witted, light-hearted romantic who is probably very charming and charismatic. While your stubbornness may sometimes get the better of you, we are confident that you always eventually come to your senses and do what's best. You probably have a lot of friends and we like you too!

I did a really dumb thing. I opened an e-mail [from a friend] and---
it was a spammer site called TAGGED.
I dumped it but not before messages were sent out to everyone in my contact list.

Saturday morning. 11 AM. Bright sunshine! We went to the neighborhood cineplex and bought tickets to see "UP", the newest Pixar movie.
There were the usual loud, annoying trailers and children [there were a lot!] squabbling. The theater was filled with kids - all ages. Adults corralling their own and neighbors' offspring.
Then "UP" began. Pixar, unbelievably, has bested itself! This movie is chock full of reasons why people are mesmerized during a good film. The children in the theater quieted.
The hero [if you can call him that] is a cranky, chubby senior named Carl Fredrickson and
we first see him as a young boy daydreaming about a comic adventurer and follow him when he comes to know another dreamer, Ellie. Together, they fantasize about their quest.
Quiet! All those children hushed. [Not even a rustle of popcorn bags or candy wrappers.]
Almost a silent movie, too, as we cycle through Ellie and Carl's life - though pictures like a family album. They grow old together, Ellie dies and their house is surrounded by construction and change.
And this is only the beginning! Quoting a critic, This graceful, visually eloquent and emotionally rich sequence may be the best few minutes of film you'll ever see.
I won't go though the whole plot. "UP" is imaginative and moving, funny and sad, scary and satisfying. When the house raises up off its foundation, lifted by hundreds of various colored helium balloons, it is enough to make your heart swell.
You've seen a lot of this in ads for "Up". This is not just a kid movie! This movie is also an adult fable about goals and living simply and yet never losing that sense of wonder and energy. I loved it!!
