An Irishman is never truly drunk so long as he can hang on to a single blade of grass and avoid falling off the face of the earth.

I've got a bottle cooler with that saying on it....

One of the best Hagar The Horrible comics I ever saw had Hagar in a bar asking if it was an Irish bar. The next panel showed the bartender with a full-face helmet on his head.

It always amazes me how angry people get when talking about politics. I have no particular political affiliation myself, so I never get into arguments with people. I just shrug and say, "whatever, dude." For some reason that makes them even angrier

I'm trying to get my minor in Political Science. The key to mine and James' happy relationship is that we don't discuss politics, feminism or religion...

We talk everything around here, politics, religion, feminism, racism, social whoas, fishing, gardening, movies, pretty much everything. There are time we have to agree to disagree, but we never argue or fight over any of it.

Karma Indy! We need an Irish one though.

You have two cows
You go out to get a drink
You come home to pray

Note: I'm Irish so it's allright.

Karma for that one, P7. Of Irish decent myself, and I'd say you COULD leave off the third line...

I needed a third line and Irish Catholics are very reigious so yeah, any ideas are accepted though.

On reflection, I realize what I typed could be read as "don't need to pray" or "don't want to pray." Didn't mean that at all...

Irish can go out to get a drink, and pray at the PUB!

Well it's nice that didn't wind up being a long drawn out disagreement, those are annoying. And I wouldn't be surprised to see an Irish man praying in a pub.
