   Looks fantastic; wish I could have been there, but of course I’m happy to have been able to read it. Thanks, Matthew.

     I heard they made that guy the VP of Development or some such. Clearly, the IRA is working behind the scenes and James Joyce will be added to the Senior Seminar reading list within the next few months..

     Wait, you don’t read Flannery O’Connor at TAC? WTF? We do at St. John’s, you know, and it’s not even a Catholic school!
