i'm pretty sure they didnt arrive in a gilded carriage.
i still question how irish he is if he doesnt drink, and doesnt hold a grudge. but then my irish diplomacy is the weakest part of my patrimony.

From a New Yorker piece on Biden:

The President considers alcoholism a kind of family curse. After growing up around hard-drinking relatives, he chose to abstain from alcohol. He also urged his siblings, and, later, his children, not to drink, although all of them eventually did—some in moderation, others to the point of addiction.

From wiki"
Of Joe Biden's sixteen great-great grandparents, ten were born in Ireland. He is descended from the Blewitts of County Mayo and the Finnegans of County Louth.

2 of my 4 grandparents were born there. gggrandfather came here in about 1800. came straight to chi as far as i can tell. 5th gen chi irish. so, i do have ancestors to talk to. family plot in a lovely catholic cemetery full of irishmen. live here since '87, and never knew til '20.
if i die here, i want to join them.

and yes, it is the curse of the irish. some enjoy it, but many suffer from it.

Come on now.

Face it would you?

i have a friend, a dog pro, who's part owner of a pembroke named zeppelin. she trained and shows him, and he's half way to his cde in a year. i'm pretty sure this woman is either part dog, or a powerful witch. she doesnt seem to have much power over humans, tho.

it's youngest's dream dog. but they're a quisling, so i'm deeply suspicious.

I know you knew better!

Erin go braugh!

esp not of the sort that's known to consort w the crown.

I guess you'd need to have brain surgery to make it fit properly eh?

😜

but i want to know the instant he either keels over or gets cuffed.
want to see that perp walk live.

But it cuts posts about him down by about half or more.

have a healthy ignore list, but never trashed a word b4.
