Okay, so we didn't meet Tuesday night...

Not surprising in retrospect what with people being under the weather, it being the Tuesday after St. Patrick's Day, etc. The next (and last) meeting was originally planned to be on April 1. Do you want to meet then, have another meeting this coming Tuesday and then meet April 1, or set everything back a week?

For what it's worth, I am open to having a meeting on March 28. I'm also open to not having a meeting on that date-- whatever y'all think works the best. I prefer that April 1 to be the last meeting if only because I'm an incurable romantic who thinks it'd be quite cool to be at an Irish pub on the fortieth anniversary of O'Brien's death.

In Schwimmen-zwei-Vögel

Friday night, I mentioned to Otherjay about the German language movie version of At Swim-Two-Birds.

Here's an image of the movie poster:

Incidentally, Brendan Gleeson also said in a recent interview that he is adapting the book as a screenplay.

Finn MacCool

Last night we dove into the layers upon layers of At Swim-Two-Birds. One question that came up was "Who is Finn MacCool?" Finn is a character in the book. And as also noted, he also appears in Finnegans Wake. Hopefully, the link will help shed a little light about Finn MacCool.

Hopefully, Satsuma has made some progress on the Greek front...

Shall we meet in someone's bed since that is where our new friend the drunk and puking Irishman seems to spend the majority of his time? If so, whose bed and what time? I'm very interested in hearing what everyone has to say about Mr. O'Brien and his At Swim Two Birds!!
