Finnegan's Wake More Fun

     Headline below reminded me of the iconic Tim Finnegan and the great work of literature he inspired: Link
     "Kid's birthday party turns into brawl" Link
     But not nearly as much fun as Finnegan's wake: "Wasn't it the truth I told you? Lots of fun at Finnegan's Wake" Link
     Perhaps pondering on the power of Irish wiskey to revivify Tim Finnegan and on the word for whiskey in the old language which literally means water of life, the fantastically gifted James Joyce was inspired to turn a pleasant little song into a great epic representing the birth, death, and ressurection of the Universe.
