2. Anybody heard of "The Lemon Order"?


The Order was officially founded by a ritual action carried out at the weirs above Islandbridge at the Irish War Memorial Park - which we infused with the spirit of peace: - at high tide on the Autumn equinox, lemons & yellow flowers were strewn upon the waters of the Liffey (a highly Joycean act) & thus floated out through Dublin to sea with the tide.

A sarcastic performance-art parody of the Orange Order? Read more about it, including Robert Anton Wilson's comments:
