Subject:        Futurama & Shakespeare

Last night on the season premier of FUTURAMA, an animated series written
by Matt Groening and others, when the space ship’s crew (sorry, I am not
familiar enough with the show to know character’s names) attacks the
military base in Roswell, NM in 1947, one of the missiles they launch
has the following graffito written on the side of the missile: Roswell
That Ends Well.
