This clever romp is two short plays. In the first, a troupe of English schoolboys (played by adults) speak in a mock language called "Dogg." This hilarious language babbles along until the schoolboys, who are studying Shakespeare's "foreign" language, present an incredibly funny 15 minute version of Hamlet and then encore with a two-minute version! The second play, dedicated to dissident Czech dramatist Pavel Kohout, is about a performance of Macbeth he and his friends once staged in a living room since the government banned public performances. The action shifts between the bare stage and the police inquiry. The murder and intrigue of Shakespeare's play are juxtaposed with the Czech political harassment.

John Patrick's Advanced Blackjack

Professional gambler John Patrick's books are among the most popular gaming books in the country. He takes players out of the red and keeps them in the black. His basic theory - that a player should be satisfied with a generous ten percent return on investment - can't be faulted. After all, if banks pay a much, much smaller return for holding money for a year, what's wrong with ten percent for a half hour's pleasure? Patrick knows roulette. It is the number-one gambling attraction in Europe and Asia and is becoming increasingly popular in American casinos. As he urges in his other books, Patrick cautions players to manage money shrewdly. They should be disciplined to press ahead when the wheel is spinning in their favor and pull back on a losing streak. He also asks that players become familiar with house rules. Blunders caused by ignorance still add up to losses. If possible, he tells players to patronize tables with a single rather than a double zero. And, above all, never bet on single numbers: That is suicidal.
