Happy Bloomsday to all

"Stately plump Buck Mulligan..."

One hundred and two years ago today, Jimmy latched onto Miss Nora Barnacle and never let her go. The rest is literary history.

On Bloomsday, all gentlemen should:
1. stroll
2. carry lemon soap in their pocket
3. eat gorgonzola
4. buy a racy book for the missus.

I'd quote more from Ulysses but I fear litigious grandson Stephen "James" Joyce would be on my ass in a split second. (See newyorker.com)
