I have just thought of something about Hamlet (I'm speaking of the book) my sister read that was VERY funny. I forget most of it, but it was a 'Dick and Jane' Hamlet, you know, of 'see Jane run' fame? The only thing I remember is wher Ophelia is drowning, IT goes something like this:
"Look at my shiny sword!" said Hamlet.
"Glub, glub." said Ophelia.
Now, I, who have never read all of Hamlet, thought it was funny. Perhaps you would need the whole thing to laugh at it, but this is all I have. Hope you at least got a little chuckle out of it.
