Forget About Audrey

William, you may be too young to realize that Audrey is a "Plane Jane", and certainly no prize. Anyone saying she loves you would be feeding you lies. There are many maidens more attractive to your eyes. There is another admirer. You are not alone. Audrey is already in love with the fool named Touchstone. This guy may be comical, and act like a clown, but he is strong enough to kick your butt out of town. Being unsuccessful is considered by anyone a pity. Just put her in the file cabinet marked "past history". Based on the play "As You Like It" by William Shakespeare
