• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

St Crispin's Day

Is today. Just thought you might like to be reminded...

"And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered,
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers.
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day."


Henry V, Act IV, Scene III

BRAVO..:salute:
 
"Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say 'These wounds I had on Crispin's day.' "

stirring words still......great stuff!!
 
Damn

No sooner had I seen this than I went scolling through the tv guide and learned that I had missed Kenneth Branagh's Henry V uninterrupted.

I'm not sure whether it was serendipitous or the REEL channel actually realized the correlation between the calendar and the play.
