Irish Blogger I really shouldn’t have let your comment through because it’s little more than spam - but I’m in a good mood (call it my charm and art) so consider this a yellow card.

The Irish are great at many things including working and playing hard. Many great Americans including several presidents are from Irish Heritage including Reagan and RFK so I think it is far fetched to say the Irish aren’t good at anything except charm and art…although we have perfected these areas. By the way you can find out a lot more about the Irish Community through the stpatricksday.com website which also includes a blog.

“Are Irish people the only immigrant group who have no means of identifying themselves to each other?”
In answer to your question. Being Irish is a bit like being a secret agent, if someone claims to be a secret agent-they’re not, they’re just trying to impress you
Why Americans like the idea of being Irish is beyond me though, we’re shit at everything except charm and art

Beautiful irony.. ironic beauty? Either way this piece was a beautiful surprise… I was actually looking for info about KC public transport. Perhaps that’s the best irony of all.

Really enjoyed that one, Eolai.
I thought I was the only one who had
a mind that works like that.
