I was searching for a copy of the Epic of Gilgamesh and found a complete english version of the Babylonian poem at this site. It was only after some digging that I realized I was in a loony bin.
For a cooler but perhaps less readable version see this site.

While trying to find information on a fist fight that occurred between two of my favorite authors: Ernest Hemingway and Wallace Stevens, I stumbled upon an interesting magazine called Modern Drunkard. While it’s hard to take a magazine with that title seriously, a closer inspection revealed a serious agenda behind the fun. They are actually promoting drinking and raising awareness about the forces working to limit alcohol consumption. The following images come from their selection of propganda art article
.
Also, interesting was the editors rant about not being allowed to attend the Absolut Vodka party at the Bar and Nightclub convention in Las Vegas. On a lighter note, I thought their Bar Signs article was very funny.

Ernest's sister Ursula, visiting Key West in 1936, came home from a cocktail party, crying. She told Ernest Wallace Stevens insulted her my making remarks on how inept was her brother in the art of writing. Ernest flew into one of his `black rages,' went to the house where the party was still going on, got into a fist fight with Stevens. Stevens was forced to remain in bed for five days with a doctor and nurse looking after him as a result of the beating he took from Hemingway.
