Ugh, Joyce can go to hell.  We had to read "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" in AP English.


The only thing worth reading from Joyce in my opinion is Dubliners (Joyce should have stuck to short stories) and maybe Ulysses if you like his style a lot and have plenty of patience.

Dubliners = Disapprove
Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
= Sleepy
Ulysses = Star

Not really a stat for which Joyce would deserve to be in my top 5, but he still is.

Finnegan's Wake has not been translated in my language (the great, great man to do the rest passed away not a long time ago) and of course there's nothing stopping me to order it, but I still won't do it.

I'm not comfortable with reading books in English, I'd rather have them in Portuguese.

this song is one of the best song I have heard that have come out from 2011, pure pop bliss one of the most adventurous pop songs i have EVER heard, also this songs will give you a totaly musical blow, of pure musical numbness,

this is pure musical work of art, a true gem of art rock which sadly goes over most purists heads

Too much pony talk. At least it didn't take so long to get through 16 pages.

you should sheck this album out Rob http://www.last.fm/music/Thom+Hell/All+Good+Things  art pop rock of really good qulity (sadly it is the only album i have of him to, but i read overviews of review of him that it is a healthy mix of Paul McCartney (more the WIngs then Beatles), Beach Boys, and Barret era Pink Floyd, but also with some progressive rock chords crimping in (if crimping is a word, i might have made a new word. http://www.last.fm/music/Thom+Hell

If it's stormy, don't go man. Two stage collapses in a week are a bad omen.

There's a wedding going on in the building, at the fourth floor, I can hear the gypsy band's songs through the walls.

That's because English is such a limited, ugly sounding and heartless language.

And I would like to note I cared once, but not anymore.
