  5. This ate my comment earlier.
    I thought we were Irish until my dad said we were mostly Scotch and English... so where did all the red hair come from? Happy St. Patrick's Day.

  6. I miss Saint Patty's day. They don't celebrate it here in the Philippines anywhere. Green beer and all that...

    I should be ashamed of myself, considering my Irish blood from my father's side of the family.

  13. That's a fine song there.

    But it was "Nancy Whiskey" that nearly got me read out at Mass. I'll have to tell that story sometime.

    And then there's "Seven Drunken Nights" -- only five verses of which can ever be sung -- and "Seven Old Ladies." I'll be you never heard that one.

    Younger Daughter went to Ireland with her high school orchestra and chorus -- and she asked the tour director how come they didn't play Irish music in Ireland? She meant rebel songs... and I understand they're a tad sensitive on that, even now. But then, wasn't she the one that sang Nancy Whiskey? At the age of two?
