Splash du Jour: Thursday

Here is a picture of my favorite author, Jose Saramago, accepting his 1998 Nobel Prize for Literature.
Upon receiving this colossal reward, which, amid the prestige it confers, also supplies a nice hefty sum of US$950,000… Saramago said, "This prize is for all speakers of Portuguese, but while we're on the subject, I shall keep the money."
I love it!
Belated congratulations, Jose, you Inimitable Genius!
You deserve ANOTHER one, in my opinion.

See my story on my own Saramago evening, if you are so bored.

Have a great Thursday!
