Say something good about Ireland!

There are a few less seminoles in the state of Florida today because Ireland was willing to babysit them for a couple of days.

 

I’ve only had the Green and Red.

The Midleton distillery tour is worth a visit. I was adamant we visit when my wife planned a trip to Blarney.

Teeling has some good stuff as well.

 

That’s Scotland.

My family hails from County Cork and the highlands of Scotland.
Scots-Irish and mean as hell!

 

Scots-Irish generally refers to the what is also known as Ulster Scot. During and after the Jacobean wars in England/Scotland a large number moved to Ireland and then after generations in Ireland to the US (not related to the later diaspora caused by the potato famine in the mid 19th century). The term most likely got started in the US to distinguish family heritage vs. the Irish immigrants that came later. My family is full of Scottish surnames MacDonald, MacMullen, Calhoun, MacQorquodale most of whom made some sort of pitstop in Ireland.

 

Florida $tate lost in Ireland!

 

Black Irish here. It's kind of an Irish hillbilly.

 

Gregory Peck was Black Irish, and happy to talk about it to anyone who would listen.

 

Mine were in Carrickmacross for 150 years after leaving Scotland.

 

I'm liking Dublin even more after today! He he

 

Ireland, where nole dreams go to die.

 

It spit out the horrible taste of FSU.

 

It’s a long, expensive flight home to suffer through after you’ve just lost to an unranked ACC team, following months of whining and lawsuits about how you were screwed out of the playoffs.

 

FSU just filed a lawsuit against Ireland

 

Dublin was the site of the first great game of the 2024 college football season.

 

Was it that year that U2 played the Rathskeller on campus?

 

Sadly no. That was 81 and I wasn’t at UF then.
Once they invent a time mach8ne that’s my first stop.

 

Ronald Reagan was of Irish ancestry
