Where's Willy?

How cool is it that William Shakespeare decided to spend his 446th birthday in Chicago? Friday, April 23 (the Bard's birthday), is Talk Like Shakespeare Day, and the man himself will be hanging around city landmarks, just waiting for you to approach him and say, "Good morrow to thee, cousin." Just remember: Rhymed couplets are all the rage.
