Awesome William Shakespeare

If you’ve ever been sent on a wild goose chase, had too much of a good thing, or told a “knock-knock” joke, you can thank William Shakespeare for it. Digg Video digs into some of the many commonly-used phrases what were first uttered in Shakespeare’s writing, along with their original context.

To the Batpoles! This awesome 20″ tall replica of the Shakespeare bust from the 1966 Batman TV series doubles as a coin bank. Like the prop, the coin slot (along with the customary dial and button) is hidden inside the bust’s neck. See it unboxed on video here.
