I got an e-mail from one of my superiors at my old office the other day. The e-mail included this gem from the recesses of her brain; "'To be crazy or not to be crazy, that is the question' or am I misquoting again?" Yes, you are misquoting again, for crying out loud.This morning I was telling my co-worker about this fascinating, albeit extremely long, article I was reading in the Globe and Mail about federal Liberal party leader hopeful Michael Ignatieff. She suddenly looked confused and asked, "He's not our Prime Minister is he?" "No." I replied, "The Liberal party doesn't have an official leader right now, he's one of the top contenders vying for the job." She then laughs, "Whew! I wasn't sure! I mean, I don't follow news and politics very much, but I was pretty sure he wasn't the Prime Minister!"
Yikes, one can't remember one of Shakespeare's most oft quoted lines, and the other doesn't even know who the head of the country is, not to mention that the current PM is a Conservative, not a Liberal. People never cease to amaze and disappoint me.
