Finally... Others get it.

Greetings loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader is very pleased to read this. Your Maximum Leader has tried to read Ulysses many times. But it doesn't go anywhere! It is a boring overwritten story. Money line from the Reuters article:
Journalist Sean Moncrieff, writing in the Irish Examiner, said Ulysses would never see the light of day if written now.


"What happens in Ulysses?" he asked.


"Well, not much. Bloom has breakfast. Goes to a funeral. Wanders around Dublin a bit. Stephen Dedalus does the same. Gets pissed (drunk) and makes a fool of himself. They both go home."


"Send that plot outline to any modern publisher and see how far you get."

Agreed.

Carry on.
