Happy Bloomsday

I think last year we said it best, we covered the best picture of all time, here it is again if you forgot:
We just need to help punctuate what should be a national holiday here and in Ireland, Bloomsday.  Here's a perfectly dorky video on the subject...yet still pretty cool:


Raise a pint and dress in some throwback gear for Leopold Bloom.  He earned it by being the main character of one of the best and equally most frustrating literary works of all time, Ulysses.  Go grab it at the public library, or maybe something lighter by the great author (Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man would be my suggestion).
 Also, Happy Anniversary Tom and Lindsey!

Happy Bloomsday...and other things

So it is a Thursday with lots going on...for one it is Bloomsday and I hope to be toasting to the fantastic James Joyce very soon...
See, the best read Joyce...
 Here are some ways to celebrate the nerdy holiday.  Unfortunately I couldn't make it down to Ulysses, I guess that was a mistake...then again:

A man of genius makes no mistakes. His errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery.

I am no genius, obviously either are the Vancouver Canucks, who blew game 7 pretty badly (yes I was rooting for them).  The riots were something...I am not sure I will ever understand the mentality of "my team just crushed my soul with that loss...so let's burn this car!!!!" but I have to say...when I was flipping open my morning Internet I never expected to see an image as glorious as this (click on it to get the full majesty):
 
That seems to be all that is Holy and strangely Riot in the world...(sorry for the pun...here is the real deal)

Plenty to see and hear and feel yet. Feel live warm beings near you. They aren't going to get me this innings. Warm beds: warm full blooded life.

Amen Brother...One last thing, I also got a give a cheers to Tom and Lindsey....Slainte!
