An Irishman goes to a building site in London and
asks the foreman if he can have a job. "Are you
Irish?", said the foreman. "Well sor, that I am",
replied the Irishman. "Well", said the foreman,"l
don't want any more Irish on this site, because they
don't know nuffink. Last week we have one here
who didn't even know the difference between a
girder and a joist. Can you tell me the difference
between girder and joist?" The Irishman thought for
a little while, and then replied, "Well sor, I tink that
Joyce wrote Ulysses and Goethe wrote Faust."

Nice one.

I remember a few years ago telling you that Joyce was all Irish to me;
unlike Greek, which was my cup of tea.
Well, it's still like that. Except that I've come to believe that Joyce
had some insight into western culture beyond my ken.

Back to the Odyssey, and wily Odysseus sitting on the shore and gazing
into the vast ocean, wondering what's out there; dreaming of Penelope.

Yes! Let's go and find it. Let's set sail, past all the monsters and
false promises, and into our dreams.
