Hahahahahahahaha!
I’m glad I waited.
My point was and still is….
JD….act right and be who you are rather something you see in the distance. Geez! When was the last time anyone from Greenville, Harrisburg or even Omaha said ‘Me’ instead of ‘my’? huh?
A Wee town? hahahahahahahahahahaha!
Be you a francophile or an anglophile, just be who you are. Geez!!! Just act normal, geez!
Don’t you realize that folks like you that speak like that are laughed at by both we here at home and the Irish folk you talk to like that?
I mean, C’mon dude!
Please tell me why before you went and visited you didn’t speak like that? You’ve been there before, right?
Are you just being pretentious?
I don’t think so. I think you are just so blown away with a different way that you have never seen before that you want to try and be different from what you see everyday. Tell me if I’m wrong, please!?
When you to go visit Boston would you return not knowing how to use the letter R, saying ‘pahk the cah’?
Now don’t even get me started on, “being the American I am”!!
WTF?
How about, “being the person I am”?
and as to ….”piss off”….Hahahahahahahaha! Try acting like the person you are!

DBA, I’m an American. We’ll talk to and get into the car with anyone. As soon as I win the lottery, I’ll throw fifteen big ones your way. Would that be ‘Merkan dollars or pounds?

Thanks for the comments alll.

Uhm, hmm…so you get in a car with a strange, go off to nowhere in particular and then, when asked to do so, stick your head under a stream of bovine urine?

In that case….if you can transfer $15,000 into my bank account you will suddenly become very attactive to all women

Well I liked it JD. Nice mix of truth and fantasy! Although I believe pee is very good for the hair! Personally, I prefer a Guinness rinse to actually drinking the stuff! Glad you had a wonderful time!

K8, you’re a sweetie.

Grannymar, there sure were a few SUV’s. I reckon Grandad had been blowing their tires out in the curve and rolling them over into the bogs.

Grandad, you’ll have your chance again in little more than three months.

Brian F., piss off!!!

Brian is just jealous that he didn’t get the ‘Tourist Treatment’.

Obviously the cow-piss was a bad idea. It just made you a slippery customer.

Next time…….. It’s the Land Fill

Go write a post Brian so I can nit pick every word. I mean a real post. Not some copy and paste crap! I had never in my life heard the word “Boyo” until a whacky woman in Belfast called me that in 2006! It is not used in the “Southern” dialect. For that matter, neither is “Famished”.

This is exactly why I don’t like writing about friends. I guess I’m just a simple ol’ boy, but I’d just like to say that I had a blast with some wonderful Irish people in southern Ireland. But, that would be too simple! If I try to write in a humorous mannerr, I always fuck it up! So, the next post about K8 and my adventures on the following day will not be funny unless on accident!

I had a great time and am very grateful that they took the time out of their lives to hang out with me. ‘Nough said.

20 days since your last post!
I’m just saying…ya’ know
“being the American that I am, I followed him to his car.”
Well that kinda’ goes against what being an American is! We don’t follow, we lead!
“that fresh cow piss was like an aphrodisiac”
How nieve are you?
“until the Irish Army arrived in their full regalia.”
Please explain to me how ELSE an army shows up? In jeans and T-shirts?
“a wee sermon about how American’s were trying to take over the place”
Of course he did! The US couldn’t give two pooplettes about Ireland so of course they think we are on the verge of invading them!
“we set off for some grub. We went to the infamous Johnny Fox’s but they were not serving supper. I was a famished boyo.”
Ok, first off, no body serves grub outside of a roadhouse in the midwest and secondly Johnny Fox’s is only infamous in County Wicklow Ireland. Thirdly Supper is a declention ONLY used by the old dutch folk here to reffer to Dinner. Oops, maybe you’re Mennonite?
And as to, “I am famiished, boyo”…My only question is…..do you follow that with, Y’all?
