MOLLY BLOOM, DEMOCRAT, TELLS HOW SHE DECIDED TO SUPPORT KERRY-EDWARDS:
"....yes when I put the sign on my lawn like the gender studies professors used or shall I wear a Kedwards Button yes and how he kissed but did not kiss me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another...."Posted by Vanderleun at October 13, 2004 7:39 AM
What the hell?

It's the literati equivalent of quoting from Monty Python.

I got the reference because I've seen that bit of "Ulysses" quoted around the web / blogosphere. But I have not read Joyce.
I do like that quote, though. If I could only be assured that the rest of the book was as clever and exciting...
