On my Mom's side. :-)

My father's father's mother was German, other than that, we are all Irish!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

2. O'Kay!

Have a bit 'o the hair! :beer:

[MrScorpio]

3. Remind me

How do we change our names?

[mitchum]

4. Uh uh! I read what Xaviera Hollander said about the men...

of the Emerald Isle. And The Happy Hooker should know...
>JOKE!< :) Christ, the last thing I need is for some drunken green-clad lout wanting to kick my ass

[Dookus]

5. heheh

I already AM Irish!

But if I could change my screen name for a day, I'd definitely become O'Dookus

6. MrO'Scorpio: There's an old saying:

"There are those who are Irish and those who wish to be Irish."

Anyway, Happy Paddy's Day to everyone on DU and I want to thank you all for giving me a forum to express my views.

All of you are a brilliant bunch of human beings.

Hopefully we'll all keep up the "Good Fight" and send the "dim son" and the rest of them back to whatever hole they crawled out of on November 2, 2004.

8. Alright .... poor me some Guiness!!

9. HELL NO!!!! GOD SAVE THE QUEEN

(3/4th English and the rest german)

[thom1102]

15. Ahem:

Up the long Ladder,
and down the short rope,
to Hell with King Billy,
and God bless the Pope,
If that doesn't do,
We'll tear 'em in two,
and send 'em to HELL with their red, white and blue.

Some say the Devil's dead,
some say he's hardly,
some say the Devil's dead and Buried in Killarney.
More say he rose again,
more say he rose again,
more say he rose again, and joined the British Army.

23. God Save the Queen?

God save the Queen
the fascist regime,
they made you a moron
a potential H-bomb.

God save the Queen
she ain't no human being.
There is no future
in England's dreaming

Don't be told what you want
Don't be told what you need.
There's no future
there's no future
there's no future for you

God save the Queen
we mean it man
we love our queen
God saves

God save the Queen
'cos tourists are money
and our figurehead
is not what she seems

Oh God save history
God save your mad parade
Oh Lord God have mercy
all crimes are paid.

When there's no future
how can there be sin
we're the flowers
in the dustbin
we're the poison
in your human machine
we're the future
you're future

God save the Queen
we mean it man
we love our queen
God saves


God save the Queen
we mean it man
there is no future
in England's dreaming

No future
no future for you
no fufure for me
