Thanks to Allyn Gibson's blog, I just found The Shakespeare Quote Generator, which substitutes an either random or pre-selected word into a Shakespearian quote. Nifty and completely useless, like so much of the Internet. Here are a few I got from adding in my name:

"This above all: to thine own Cameron be true."
"Never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet, and her Cameron."
"Presume not that I am the Cameron I was."
"Now is the Cameron of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of York."
"Let's carve him as a dish fit for the Cameron, not hew him as a carcass fit for hounds."
"Double, double, toil and trouble, fire burn and Cameron bubble."

Hours of fun, I can tell. And I swear to you that I'd gotten this far in typing the entry before I remembered that Allyn Gibson once quoted something that I'd written in pseudo-Shakespearian style in one of his Usenet sigs.

Friends, Romans, Cameron, lend me your ears...

Hope you had a nice holiday. Next time we see you in person we'll give you some belated xmas crap to clutter up your apartment!
(Shakespeare didn't say that last part-well, he may have)

Ah, literary pasticherie. :)

That quote from "Promise of the Daleks" still comes up from time to time in my e-mail client.
