King Lear: I had never read or seen King Lear. PBS advertised a showing, so I decided I would read it and then watch it. So I did. It is quit interesting, which I guess is a really stupid thing to say of a play that has been around for 400 years.
King Lear had three daughters. It is about his old age and the things that happened to him and the girls. It is also about his friend Gloucester, who had two sons, one legitimate and on illitimate. Talk about a TRAGEDY. It was so sad. Well I guess families can have problems.
Otherwise we had a major snowstorm and neither the garbage man nor the mailman showed up. I don't blame them. Carol
