I never was into that Paddy-phile stuff, its always those 5th and 6th generation American-Irish that act the fools on the 17th.
but I do get a little Irish every day thanks to my beautiful, immigrant wife from Galway!

Steve Earle has a catchy little tune called Galway girl that would probably tickle you and your girl. It's a nice song.

(good one) Or maybe we yanks don't want to be with the drunk Micks?

You can't keep a good Mic down…..or from falling down. They'll just perfect the pub crawl.

From what I've seen, the Irish lads have no problems beating the Irish lasses! My wife's a Scouser….you know your jealous!

Oh, I beg to differ…the Irish lads are on the losing end of any punch-up with an Irish lass….and why do you think a scouser had to marry a doodle???? No Brit would have them!
:D :p

My Irish ancestry is from Galway, specifically, Conomara(sp?). (I think I'm 3rd or 4th generation; but a European mutt, when all is said and done.) Supposedly we have some relatives in Galway now but I have no clue who they are. My aunt told me not long ago what business some of them are in but I don't really remember. Think it may have been real estate.

Well, if they were scousers they'd into "false estate" ;) ;)
