Well for the 50% Irish & English in me........
An Irishman goes into a bar in America and orders three whiskeys. The barman asks: "Would it be better for if I put all three shots in one glass?"
The Irishman replies: "No! I have two other brothers back at home, so every time I come into a pub, I order a shot for them both."The following week, the Irishman orders just two whiskeys.
The barman asks: "Did something happen one of your brothers?" "Oh no," replies the Irishman. "I just decided to quit drinking!"

Just remember God created whiskey to prevent the Irish from ruling the world!
Always Swing first and ask questions later.
If you see somebody staggering or slurring their words on March 17th; chances are they don't have a drinking problem. They just have no problem getting drunk.
A true workaholic is somebody that just wants to get drunk when he hears the 4 letter word "work"
Don't drink and drive but drinking and posting is encouraged.
In case anyone forgot, Charlie Sheen is STILL Winning!

We went to Sat. night bridge game at the home of the O'Donalds (not the real name but very close) and they had corn beef, cabbage and spuds along with Irish cream.

Happy belated St Patrick's Day, guys.
I'm curious, who has Irish heritage in the Board?
By the way, my Spanish friend, they say sometimes that the "Black Irish" (Irish with dark hair instead of red or lighter hair), get their dark hair because remants of the defeated Spanish Armada made their way to Ireland and settled there and breeded with the local lasses.
But...I can tell you that that is not true. My mother was "black Irish"....as were her sisters and other family......but I recently did one of those DNA tests, and there is not a spec of Iberian blood in me. So, while maybe that tale is true for some Irish families, it is not for my Black Irish family. Funny thing is: I have red hair. Got it from my Dad....who was mostly Scottish, not Irish.

I think I had heard that somewhere... Anyway, genetically speaking, it sounds peculiar to me that Black Irish would come from the Spanish, and not from the English, with whom the Irish have had more history in common (in peace and in war).

Well....they very well may. Or, perhaps, the Black Irish are simply endemic to Ireland.
