Happy 155th Birthday, Mr Wilde!

Celebrate, my fruity little friends. Wear green carnations and read daring fiction, go see a play by the Wit of the World or better yet, read De Profundis or The Soul of Man Under Socialism. See Wilde, read any of Mr Stephen Fry's very excellent treatises on the subject of Oscar, or better yet buy (oh yes, I just said to buy something) his new recordings of Oscar Wilde's short stories.

Most importantly, my loves, celebrate by loving, living, laughing, being generous of heart and spirit, and appreciating the absurd beauty of life. There is no better way to honour Oscar Wilde.

Personally, I am going to celebrate by writing in his honour.
