Some Irish tunes for your listening pleasure. A couple of wave files - full-length, lilting, Irish melodies - they are so beautiful! I hope you can open them, or "save target as" to your hard drive and listen to them later.

"My Wild Irish Rose" ~ John Gary
"I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen" ~ John Gary

MIDIS
"Irish Lullabye"
"The Last Rose of Summer"
"When Irish Eyes are Smiling"
"I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen"
"Danny Boy"




Finest Friends....

May you always have work for your hands to do.
May your pockets hold always a coin or two.
May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.
May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend always be near you.
And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

[Army Air Corps]

Como estas?

[Victoria Delsoul]

Thanks AC and a very Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too, my friend.

Hope you're enjoying your Friday.

[Majie Purple]

And for you a non green sompin',sompin' too!

[Victoria Delsoul]

My bien, gracias. Celebrando el dia, pero tengo tanta cerveza, no creo que pueda tomar tanto.

[Army Air Corps]

Que lastima!

[Victoria Delsoul]

Bueno, poco a poco, talvez me demore una semana tomarlas.

[Army Air Corps]

Estas borracho?

[Victoria Delsoul]

Estas loco? He dicho que no puedo tomar tanto.

Which means, I can't drink that much.

Back later.

As a descendant of the Irish Patriot, Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa....This seems like the proper time to share this bit of Irish Humor.......


Q: How did the Irish Jig get started?
A: Too much to drink and not enough restrooms.


RECIPE FOR IRISH STEW:

Get some meat, some potatoes, and a lot of Guinness
Stout.

Drink all of the Guinness Stout.

Forget about the stew.

An authentic Irish Blessing......

"May those who love us, love us
and those who don't love us,
may God turn their hearts,
and if he doesn't turn their hearts,
may he turn their ankles...
so we'll know them by their limping."

---

An Irish priest and a Rabbi found themselves sharing a
compartment on a train. After a while, the priest
opened a conversation by saying "I know that, in your
religion, you're not supposed to eat pork... Have you
actually ever tasted it?"

The Rabbi said, "I must tell the truth. Yes, I have,
on the odd occasion."

Then the Rabbi had his turn of interrogation. He
asked, "Your religion, too... I know you're supposed
to be celibate. But...."

The priest replied, "Yes, I know what you're going to
ask. I have succumbed once or twice."

There was silence for a while. Then the Rabbi peeped
around the newspaper he was reading and said, "Better
than pork, isn't it?"

sorry, I didn't see the "no" in front of "puedo". I read to quickly. :-)

[Majie Purple]

For the troops nothin'green...Just something in Beautiful Red;White and Blue!

[Alberta's Child]

Thanks! I always enjoy my Fridays. LOL.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Just FYI, “borracho” is not a nice word. You can say “mareado” (male) “mareada” (female.) Y puedes usar otros nombres, pero por el momento, “mareada” is suficiente.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Hey, good for ya.

[Army Air Corps]

Okay. The only word that I ever learned in classes (high school and college) was borracho. I'll have to write a letter to some Spanish teachers for being slack! :-)
