Congrats to Will Ferrell – latest recipient of the James Joyce award. Now, honestly, you have to read the article – check out the OUTFIT he wore to accept the award. I’m howling!! And his comments on Joyce (“As I perused my leatherbound volumes of ‘Ulysses,’ ‘Finnegans Wake,’ ‘Dubliners,’ ‘Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man,’ standing in my mahogany library, a lot of feelings ran across my mind. Like: ‘Damn, I should have read these books.’ “) have already made my day and it’s not even 8 a.m. yet.

Ha! Sheil, I just read your whole post on the front page of this! I clicked on the link so fast I didn’t even get down to your “already made my day quote.”
We said the exact same thing!!!
Bren – no way! I totally thought you were echoing what I had said – I love that!!!
