GREAT MEMORIES OF FAMINE AND RELIGIOUS SLAUGHTER—NO WONDER THEY’RE ALCOHOLICS
Is that why Ted’s an alcoholic too?
A few things.
First:
Today is my sister-in-law the harpist’s 39!! Birthday! Happy last Birthday of your youth TISHA!!!(I’m 3 1/2 years younger than she is.heheheheh)
Second: St. Patrick was born in what is now Scotland-while St. Columba(the patron saint of Scotland) was actually born in Eire!
Go figure.
from the evil Scots wife of a flockin’ hoosier Irishman.
THe legend is that St. Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland.
Unfortunately they all landed here:
Kennedys
Kerrys
Bulgers (more in-famous around the Northeast)
etc… Feel free to add to the list.
I’m a micx of a little of just about everything, but more scots and irish than the rest.
And, no I don’t hiss or crawl around on my belly, but i do like to bask in the warm sun.
like the green bit ocm, you missed that one ocm, happy paddys day skipper.
a tatoo freind of mine went to a tatoo convention in californecation, and under advice from his US buddy was tatooing italian flags on wotever generation paddys, when he told him it should be green white orange, the yank just said “oh well they look alike”, loads of whatever generation US paddys dancing singing today with italian flags on there arms,i should not laff but i cant help it sorry.
Dog: Yes, more is better, in this case. 100 years ago, there were signs in tavern windows:
NO DOGS OR IRISH!
That always makes me think of our Skipper.
Hmmmmmm ... which avatar shall I bestow upon our little piggy this time?
Hmmmmm .. mmmmmmmm .. mmmm ..
NOT FAIR! Under the topic “Are Our Kids Pacified Enough?”—see my effort on behalf of BMEWS Status!
I have spent two St. Patrick’s Days in Ireland. Both fun times - it is first a religious festival and saints feast day. The patron saint of the island is revered.
As, Cormac said, “I am fecking tired of all these Americans coming over here and saying ‘I am 100% Irish!’ ... What does that make me? 200% Irish?”
This is the day for all the fake Irishmen everywhere to get drunk and make fools of themselves.
No thanks.....
Happy Saint Patrick’s
The Hobo
It should not be forgotten that St. Patrick was born in Scotland.
snakes?
did someone say SNAKES!!!!???
It’s not your fault if you were born in Ireland; just if you die there.
