Hmmm. English muffins have 'nooks and crannies' -- what do Irish muffins have? :yum:

Leprechauns and liver disease?

They're at work or in the pub. You won't hear from them until they hook up computers with internet access in all the pubs. ;)

UG, do you have me on ignore?
(Yes, I know, asking that question doesn't make sense, but ...) I've been back in Australia for a year now.

We did have a kiwi here for a while, El Bandito I think he was, but we made him go to the doctor when he described recurring symptoms that were very likely a heart attack. I'm a little concerned that he has never been back. I hope he is okay.

I've got plenty of Irish ancestry, and good servings of German, Scottish and English, which is pretty much the classic pre-1950 Australian mix.

no, she's russian.

I'm irish though...on both sides.

I think the reason you don't see them is because the Irish are too fucking cheap or poor to buy computers.

me too! the Janney side of the family has a thorough genealogy set down

Why, because they're not Mexicans?

because there are so few of them; I'm happy to see them.

Nope. Just never saw you spun into any threads I was reading, hardly. Lost track, more like. Note the date of posting.

Yep, that describes my family tree pretty much too...except we don't have any German in us that I know of. Just lots of Irish, English and scottish with a dabbling of Welsh for good measure.

blue in the face

yellow belly

k im only new to the cellar and im likn it so far......

.......oh and im irish,..........

we dont drink in the pubs all day....they dont open til noon!we aint on forums like this often because, (yes the internet is shit here, but thats not why,we drink alot but thats not why either)
.........we talk about anything we want in the pubs (you know the poor old donkey and all that) dont need the internet for or random thoughts.

me im a no good student so im on the cellar because the pub isnt open yet and i dont wana go to class

and one more thing......

if you qualify to hold an irish passport good for you, your irish, otherwise sod off your not irish its just wishful thinking.

:)

The Americans see it differently, bless 'em.
I'm beginning to understand it now. If someone with an American accent tells you they are half Scottish and half Norwegian, just smile and tell them it's interesting. They'll never have been to either country and likely even their grandparents haven't. And if they do, they'll complain about the shower pressure, the size of the cars and the price of the food anyway ;)

(All said with love, you understand)

so...I'm Native American? ;)

Don't let the stereotype get you down, muffin. We're just playin'. Glad you like it here----we're really not so bad. (well, yes we are, but I'm trying to put a good spin on it)

Anyway---what kind of no good student are you? what year? what major?

Huh. Indians (in India) are always really happy to claim me as one of their own. And get a little pissed off at me when I tell them I'm not Indian, I'm an American.

YMMV.
