My good friend "Bill" Shakespeare was born April 23, 1564 and died April 23, 1616. I spoke to him earlier today on this his birth and death day.
GJ: So Bill, what's it like to be 452 years old?
WS: Not bad. I don't know whether it's worse to be 452 years old, or dead for 400 years.
GJ: Why did you die on your birthday?
WS: It was not my idea. Lee Harvey Oswald poisoned me.
GJ: How could Oswald murder you on April 23,1616 when he was not born until October 18, 1939?
WS: There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Gary, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
GJ: Okay, so why would Oswald murder you?
WS: I don't know. Perhaps he did not like one of my plays.
Suddenly Bill disappeared! I suspect the CIA had something to do with it. They did not want me getting more information about Lee Harvey Oswald's involvement in William Shakespeare's death.
