After reading about what Frederick does with parking tickets ("A place for pardons," March 25), I have to write to you about my recent experiences. Being half Irish I celebrate what has become St Patrick's month. On Saturday, March 12, we met some friends at the James Joyce Irish bar on President Street to start our celebrating. Then on St. Patrick's Day we started our day at Mass at St Patrick's Church on Broadway. From there we go to Duda's Tavern on Thames Street for lunch. Here is how the city rips people off: When we found a parking space on Saturday, the meter would only let us pay for two hours.

James Joyce's "Ulysses" is celebrated by scholars and lay readers the world over -- and Washington is no exception. For the past 13 years, a handful of dedicated actors and savants have gathered for a marathon dramatic reading of the novel, which tells the story of two turn-of-the-century Irishmen, whose journeys one June day strangely parallel those of Odysseus and his son Telemachus in Homer's "Odyssey." This year, the Joyceans are back with four readings to be held at Kelly's Irish Times.

Ben Sliney, the operations manager at the FAA's command center in Herndon, Va., is a big, solid, square-cut man who can take charge of a room filled with blinking screens and make it seem as if he's commanding something as old-industry as a steel mill or a coal mine. He plays himself in the surging new Sept. 11 film, United 93, and when you see this rooted, super-competent executive react with dizzying disbelief at the call that tells him a plane's been hijacked, his face brings back all the stunning dislocations of that day. What he does in microcosm stands for what the movie does as a whole.
