  The Ides of March is so cool. Technically, it should be March 16, considering there are 31 days in March, but I'll stop nitpicking. Julius Caesar was a cool play, but Macbeth was even cooler, and both involve stabbing the monarch to death. It was this day in 44 B.C. that 60 conspirators led by Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus attached Gaius Julius Caesar in the Roman Senate. I think Macbeth might be my favorite Shakespeare play. I love the three portentous witches, the indelible blood spot, and the ambiguity of the line Macbeth says after he hears Lady Macbeth committed suicide: "She should have died hereafter," which has varying interpretations.
