ROTFL (Irish style)

by Diane Duane

I roared. An oldie-but-goodie from The Onion:

“Mary Gaughan, my mother’s father’s mother’s mother, was from a tiny village called Ballydesmond,” said the brown-eyed, brown-haired Kroeger, who is half German, one-quarter Swedish, one-eighth Dutch, one-sixteenth Belgian, and one-sixteenth Irish. “She married a sailor who was traveling from Rotterdam to America, and they settled in Milwaukee. Ever since, my family’s been proud to be Irish.”

…Meanwhile, I see that RTÉ is going live online with the Dublin St. Patrick’s Day Festival / Parade, for those of you who might be interested in watching.

Enjoy the Day That’s In It, everybody!
