No spoilers please, but Hamlet does win in the end, doesn’t he?

Life guard at the pool said my swimsuit was too revealing then asked if I was male or female.

I wrote a letter today and used the word “Mnemonic” four times.

Every single time I spelled it wrong, so I wrote this little mnemonic to remember it “Many Nematodes Eat Mushy Organic Noodles In Cafes.”

Which would be great if only I could remember how to spell nematoads.

My doctor told me I need a lighter diet so I wrote The Helium Cookbook.

I wanted to take the Waterview tunnel, but someone told me where it came out.

SPOILER!

I intend to live forever, or die trying
