Insomniac-Net Questions -- Friday[25], June 17, 2016
Tonight's Topic: Bloomsday 2016
    Good morning/evening, everybody! Thank you for joining us tonight.
    We hope you'll discover something interesting during the time we spend together on the Insomniac Net for the next 90+ minutes.

=================
    Every year, on June 16th, fans of Irish author James Joyce celebrate “Bloomsday”.
    What is "Bloomsday"?
    Well, Joyce wrote a "modern" novel, Ulysses, which chronicles the events and lives of several Dubliners -- throughout a single day: Thursday, June 16, 1904.
    Considered a 20th century literary masterpiece, many people may have heard of it, but few have finished reading it -- including me!
    Accordingly, we offer for your approval tonight, 3 questions about Joyce's Ulysses.
    Please choose your answers from any of the 3 (reuseable) answers of "A", "B", or "C" (if applicable!) for each of the following question  
    OK, let's get ready to wonder....

Question #1: Although Ulysses is set in 1904, Joyce actually didn't start writing it until 1914 (and for the next 8 years) while during a self-imposed exile from Ireland. True or false?
        A. True, or
        B. False.

        A. Sylvia Beach, or
        B. Nora Barnacle, or
        C. Molly Bloom.

        B. 1929, or
