(BTW: We love Isaiah Sheffer, and we love Bloomsday on Broadway. Hats off to their 30th anniversary! But on many Bloomsdays past, it was nearing 2am or later as we left UWS, with the lovely Ms. Flannagan’s dulcet reading lingering on our minds ears. That’s a long way home in the predawn hours, to the Ferry and beyond. Sure, we could have lingered in some cabmen’s shelter, but we decided to offer a Bloomsday gathering on our fair isle. If you’re in our neck of the woods, join us.)
