I could tell you my ambitions, but then I'd have to kill you - actually my ambitions are to become fabulously wealthy so I can commute between Hawaii and New Zealand and other places depending on my mood.
Tough Guide to Fantasyland - it seems to be out of print currently -
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0886778328/103-4045089-7199864?v=glance&s=books Taming of the Shrew... I love that play. Memorized part of it for my Shakespeare class and can even recite a little off the top of my head. It's not my favorite, but close.
So you're planning to conquer Hawaii and New Zealand first? Then what? [Turns on hidden tape recorder wired to anti-Overlord authorities. . .]
Tough Guide to Fantasyland sounds funny! I just checked to see if my library has a copy, but no luck. BTW, I did find an illustrated copy of Pratchett's The Last Hero yesterday and checked that out--is that any good?
My favorite Shakespeare is Othello, but as far as his comedies I like Tempest, Twelfth Night, and Midsummer Night's Dream best of what I've read. Taming of the Shrew is pretty funny so far--I'm into Act II now.
