I like this place and could willingly waste my time in it

Good morrow, most fine noble bass brethren, permit me this small foreward
Which shall be well winged with my chiefest horse.

I didst chance upon this most wonderous place whilst searching for to purchase a five-string bass lute
And find great humour and comradeship in this group
Varying from most humble squire, to wisened sage, to mad mustachio purple-hued maltworms!

Mine own youthful folly was to pluck contrabass in consort within a band of William Byrd tribute minstrels.
The rum group of minstrels didst surplus the mead 'till they're craniums would strike the very dais itself!
I'll ne'er be drunk whilst I live
again, but in honest, civil, godly company, for
this trick: if I be drunk, I'll be drunk with those
that have the fear of God, and not with drunken
knaves.

I come, in kindness and unfeigned love.


William

Sir, I believe that we have already exchanged pleasantries in the Status Updates section - however, allow me to repeat my welcome to you.
I was talking to my Florentine friend Dante Alighieri the other day, and he is sending you his regards too. He's not a member on here yet, as he's still struggling with the signup process, but I understand he is going to give it another go when he's done proof-reading the Inferno.

Hello Sir William!!

Or in Glasweigan..........Awright there Big Wully!!!



This reminds me of that scientific report that statted that if you gave 10 monkees bass guitars and enough time, they could write a Victor Wooten solo album.




Or words to that effect.

Infernos are a distant vision in this frost-glazed town
With the white sheet bleaching on the hedge,
With heigh! the sweet bluejay, O, how it sings!
Doth set my mind to blissful slumber

Thou lov'st to hear the sweet melodious sound
That Wooten's bass lute, the chief of music, makes;
And I in deep delight am chiefly drown'd
Whenas himself to double thumbing he betakes

Good morrow to you, fine sir! Doth thou visit to dwell and partake in much conversions of thine bass lute, or doth thou visit on matters of business?

Mister Shakesphere, of whom it is said conjured the language a great deal, why doth thou while away thy time among the lowly entertainers and bass lutists?

Anyway, enough of this olde worlde talk.

Welcome, there are many a bass lute to be seen at market. Many a meandering story to be heard in general discussion, and many debates to be seen in off topic.

PS. Well done you for deciding not to be dead anymore, and learn how to use the internet.

You're not really Will Shakespeare .. you're Kit Marlowe in disguise.

Either that or the Earl of Oxford.

Or someone else.

At the risk of not being completely OT, and OT instead:
He's someone else, or rather, someones elses: he's William Stanley, Earl of Derby AND Francis Bacon. Everybody knows that.

"Follow the code."
