Blue Monday Links.

[Editor's Note:  This will be the last of the daily link posts.  I was going to try for the year, but without a particular focus it's taking too much of the day to do and stopped being fun.  Hope you've enjoyed it and be assured, if I'm still here, Christmas Links will be back in December.]

Radio 4 and Radio 3 explore the legacy of Modernism:
BBC Media Centre:  "Marking 100 years since the publication of Ulysses, Radio 4 and Radio 3 explore Modernism’s big bang - and its aftershocks - in a season of programmes."

The scandalous history behind one post box in Liverpool city centre:

Lee Grimsditch:  "The rare object is a reminder of one of the biggest scandals of the 20th Century."

Did Burt Reynolds Dump Horse Manure from a Helicopter on National Enquirer’s Christmas Tree?

Madison Dapcevich:  "The actor said he was sick of the crap coverage."

Melanie Lynskey Is Mad as Hell and Not Going to Take It Anymore. Maybe.

EJ Dickson:  "The ‘Yellowjackets’ star has gone from character actor to leading lady thanks to her singular ability to project simmering rage beneath a placid exterior."

There’s nothing worse than a restaurant that makes you feel like an old git:

Jay Rayner:  "Give us over-50s a menu we can read, grownup waiters and the chance to hold a conversation. It’s not too much to ask – and it makes business sense too."
