Men of unparalleled intellect and codpiece,
On October 22nd we embark on a journey that will live
on in MOP lore for centuries to come as we gather at Gabler's Knob in St. Mary's. How suitable to have such an epic adventure whilst
reading about the adventures of one of the most legendary heroes in all of
Greek mythology! "The Song of
Achilles" is a modern take on the ancient poem by Homer and one that comes
highly praised by Quintin Gabler himself, a fine scholar in his own right! The book's "Achilles heel" if you
will, is that it is written by a female, Madeline Miller. I beg your pardon and, though inferior in
every respect, admittedly, they do have some excellent qualities and it is my
hope that "Mad Mill" can deliver the goods and open our minds in some
respects. No doubt, this book will lend
itself to important discussions about life, death, war, adventure, sexuality,
love, and the human spirit.
In unprecedented fashion, we plan to include a celebrity
guest in the reading and discussion of this parchment, a man who certainly
would be part of our brotherhood, if not for his proximity. I know we all share in my delight at
including Uncle Kenny Gabler in this episode of our storied history! Pompous, if you would please extend an invitation to UK, it would be out honor to have him in attendance.
Go forth, ye seekers of the written word…!
