Veteran's Day Weekend post:  

I am excited to see ow the play is turning out, as things are developing quite rapidly.  Hamlet has returned from his "death voyage" to England, much to the surprise of Claudius who ordered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to behead him.  Also, Laertes has returned from his adventures in France and is enraged to hear about his father's death and how he was not given a proper burial.  He storms the Claudius' castle, only to be manipulated in to eliminating his father's killer himself, Hamlet.  Also, due to the unexpected passing of her father, Ophelia either drowned by accident in a pond or committed suicide.  I am interested to see which side Laertes will take, as his current side (Claudius' side) is the side of evil.  Also, Gertrude is slowly but surely distancing herself from the king at Hamlet's orders, yet will she listen to him?
