It's a relief how this piece turned out (that's a joke). It's maybe the two-and-a-half dimensional equivalent of those two-dimensional puzzle pictures which depict a three-dimensional scene but are impossible in three dimensions.
This piece has two birds' heads, either end, so it doesn't know whether it is coming or going. This photo is of the longer-necked bird.
It's all a bit absurd which is partly why Flann O'Brien's "At Swim-Two-Birds" was adapted for the title to become "At Fly-Two-Birds".

Los vehículos de carretera son objetos grandes y pesados diseñados para moverse a alta velocidad, a menudo mucho más allá de lo que los humanos pueden registrar con respecto a los cambios repentinos en el medio ambiente. Como tal, la Organización Mundial de la Salud señala que los accidentes de tráfico siguen siendo una de las principales causas de muerte y lesiones en todo el mundo, y la principal causa de muerte entre las personas de 15 a 29 años.
El conjunto de fotos antiguas de esta semana presenta escenas de las secuelas de varios accidentes automovilísticos en Eslovenia. La intención aquí no es mirar el sufrimiento humano, y no hay imágenes explícitas de cuerpos retorcidos en los restos. En su lugar, estamos compartiendo estas fotos, obtenidas de una inmersión profunda a través de Wikimedia, como viñetas de la vida cotidiana, mostrando el interés público en tales eventos, las multitudes se reunieron para vislumbrar algo terrible y las prácticas simples de aquellos que tienen para recopilar los hechos y lidiar con lo que sucede después.

Triade
As a long-time enthusiast for Flann O'Brien / Myles nagCopaleen / Brian O'Nolan, one of the minor pleasures for me of the Porterhouse is being able to ask the bar staff for "A Pint of Plain".
At £3 a pint this is five times the price of the first copy of "At Swim-Two-Birds" that I bought in 1975.
Alle sprechen vom Hunger auf Kunst und Kultur, niemand vom Durst, dabei kann es sich bei den anderen dringenden Dingen, auf die Flann O'Brien in seinem Buch "Durst und andere dringende Dinge" abziehlt, nur um Kunst und Kultur handeln.

Gips-Replik eines Irischen Hochkreuz.
Im April 1989 wurde für die Sonderausstellung "Kilian, Mönch aus Irland - aller Franken Patron" dieses berühmte Inschriftenkreuz auf dem Klosterfriedhof von Clonmacnois in der Provinz Leinster, Grafschaft Offaly abgeformt. Nach Beendigung der Würzburger Ausstellungim Okt. 1989 wurde das Hochkreuz im Innenhoif des Knauf-Museums aufgestellt.
Die Kirchenruine der Klostersiedlung Clonmacnois ("Wiege des Sohnes von Nos") zählt heute mit ihren zwei Rundtürmen und besonders mit dem Cors of the Scriptures (Inschriftenkreuz) zu den großen Sehenswürdigkeiten des Landes.
Gerade wegen ihres Reichtums (innerhalb des Klosterbezirks befanden sich um die Jahrtausendwende eine bedeutende Klosterschule mit 6000 Studierenden und Werkstätten, in denen die Mönche wertvolle Handschriften und Reliquien-Gegenstände herstellten) wurde die Klosterstadt von den Wikingern und Normannen mehrfach geplündert und niedergebrannt.
Auf der besser erhaltenen Seite des Hochkreuzes ist oben Moses zwischen Aaron und Hur zu sehen. Gemeinsam mit Aaron stützte Hur während der Schlacht gegen die Amelekiter die Arme von Mosos, der um den Sieg betete. Im Mittelpunkt des Kreises ist Christus beim Jüngsten Gericht mit Zepter und Kreuz als Symbol der Weltherrschaft zu sehen. Im unteren Feld das historische Ereignis des Einrammens des erstsen Pfahles für die Klostergründung durch St. Ciaran und Diarmait. Die teilweise noch erhaltene Inschrift lautet: (C)olman dorro(ini in chroi)ssa ar (inrig Flai)nd ("Colman errichtete dieses Kreuz für König Flann") Der Sockelfries zeigt drei Reiter und darunter zwei einachsige Wagen mit Wagenlenkern und Pferden.

Flann's was once widely considered to have been the best Irish pub in Paris. But then, for some reason, it was closed down and locked up - I have an idea someone told me the owner was moving to Brittany to open an Irish pub there.
That would have been in the early 2000s - and it lay empty and abandoned for at least 10 years. I'd found it surprising someone else didn't try to take the pub over, but there you go. (Such was its reputation, people were recommending Flann's to me 2 or 3 years after the pub had closed down).
“Anybody who has the courage to raise his eyes and look sanely at the awful human condition ... must realize finally that tiny periods of temporary release from intolerable suffering is the most that any individual has the right to expect.”
― Flann O'Brien
Flann O'Brien, one of my favorite authors, was born 100 years ago. Sweeny is a charakter in the novel "At Swim-Two-Birds", which is O'Briens best work I believe.
Together with "Slaughterhouse Five", "Naked Lunch", "To Kill a Mockingbird" and other great books it was picked for the "ALL TIME 100 Novels" list. It could be doubt if such a list can be as reasonable as entertaining - but I have no doubt at all that O'Brien totally deserves to be on the list.

More than a pint of the dark stuff. High tech storage at the Guinness Brewery - St James's Gate, Dublin.
For bar 16 I headed to Mission Hill area to Flann O'Brien's Pub. A nice little Irish bar where I got to watch Rugby as I drank my pint. There was a sign on the wall saying to bring in your old cell phone for a free beer. I can't think of a better use for my old phones. The beer was Endurance Pale Ale is wasn't that good. I should of went with the Blue Hill Pale Ale.
The Cathedral.
Building started around 909 (Chronicum Scotorum) by Flann and Colmán. The west doorway has been recently (and somewhat controversially), comprehensively restored with the Gothic-style north doorway, often called the Whispering Arch, dating to the mid-15th century. The Cathedral is the largest of the churches at Clonmacnoise. Rory O'Connor, the last High King of Ireland, was buried near the altar in 1198, joining his father Turlough. Most of the graves currently seen in the church are those of the Coghlan family, whose patriarch extensively rebuilt the cathedral in the mid-seventeenth century.
Flann O'Brien: At Swim-Two-Birds
Cover: The Bus by the River by Jack B. Yeats
Penguin Modern Classics, 1981, 2636
How can I convey the perfection of my comfort on the bicycle, the completeness of my union with her, the sweet responses she gave me at every particle of her frame? ... She moved beneath me with agile sympathy in a swift, airy stride, finding smooth ways among the stony tracks, swaying and bending skillfully to match my changing attitudes, even accommodating her left pedal patiently to the awkward working of my wooden leg.

At Swim-Two-Birds by Flann O'Brien was the chosen book for Dublin: One City One Book 2006
Flann O'Brien (real name Brian O’Nolan) was born in 1911 in Co. Tyrone. He graduated from UCD and joined the Civil Service. In addition to At Swim-Two-Birds he wrote The Dalkey Archive, The Third Policeman, The Hard Life and The poor Mouth - as well as the Cruiskeen Lawn column in the Irish Times under the pseudonym, Myles Na Gopaleen. He died on April 1st, 1966.
About the book
First published in 1939, the same year as Joyce’s Finnegan’s Wake, At Swim-Two-Birds is a modern masterpiece mixing Irish history and Gaelic legend with a profound knowledge of Dublin’s streets, bars and urban grime - creating a hilarious and irreverent cocktail. It pokes fun at the work of O’Brien’s Irish near-contemporaries, among them, WB Yeats, James Joyce and Samuel Beckett.

Moody’s Mood for Love
for Amy Winehouse
Sometimes a woman knows
what the nightingale’s tongue tastes like –
a woman who unfastens smoke
in her vein. A flat chord. You
hunt starlings in God’s mouth.
A starlight only Stella
might have named.
Sometimes a woman knows
she lives in her knees first.
I sing a little song about the crooked teeth
of a good man who had fists of butter...
