http://legendsofamerica.blogspot.com/2008/03/shakespeare-and-new-mexico-border.html Seriously. It’s a ghost town, named Shakespeare. I knew about it’s existence, but I don’t think I’ve ever linked to it. Technically has nothing to do with the real Shakespeare, as far as I can tell, which would normally break one of my rules (I don’t, for instance, blog references to Shakespeare fishing rods), but it seems like it *should* be related to the man, and I can’t see any evidence that it’s not. Be sure to follow the links that describe the history of the town, it’s actually pretty fascinating. I have a brother out in New Mexico. If I ever get out there to visit him, I’ll have to check this place out.
