Anyway, I find it sort of ironic that this hurricane is named "Ophelia" since in the play "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare, the character Ophelia committed suicide by drowning herself. (At least that's what happened in the movie version by Mel Gibson.) Get the connection? Hurricane = water. Ophelia, Hamlet's sister, = drowning in water. Maybe it's not so much ironic as it is an uncanny coincidence.
If you'd like to learn more about Ophelia's death in Hamlet, visit your local library and ask one of the homeless people to please get off the computer so you can look up Ophelia on the library's system. Or, you could just click here.
Have a great night!
