So, we're at Murphy's (local pub). Chandler Bing's old girlfriend, the one with the laugh, comes in and parks next to us at the bar. OK, OK, so it's not HER, but this gal has the LAUGH. She asks me about the pin given out at the door, Slainte. "What's that mean?" I said, something like "cheers". She says "oh, like Salute !" I said sure, thinking yes, Gaelic is so similar to the Romance languages. But, hey, it's St.Patty's day, and everyone is your best buddy. She and her gang were nice. She laughed at ALL MY JOKES so I really liked her.
The blind singer of Irish tunes was there, again. Dan Maher, to give full credit. He's good, and gets the crowd involved. We had a couple Guinness's. Here we are at home with our new necklaces. Gina spotted one staff guy with it, and really liked it. Kind of neon-ish. Usually, they are very stingy about giving away the good stuff. He was about to give us a cheap Mardi Gras type strand, but I said I really (O'Riley ?) liked his other one. And he went and got us each one. Love that guy.
My bracket sheet is a mess of red errors. Of course I picked MSU. Sorry, Uncle Jerry.
And I'm still kicking myself for picking Syracuse. I NEVER pick them. and never will again.
Now I must go watch the rest of the games. and hope.
Erin go braugh !

Cool shiny objects!! Thank you for the NUMEROUS calls yesterday...I enjoyed the Irish music immensely.
Go "Pops" Go!!! If GMU goes any farther I can kiss any hope of getting my brackets straightened out!
Today, I realized it was not Chandler's girlfriend's laugh, but Sponge Bob's. Who says I watch too much tv ?
Go Zags. See, they really are a team.
and UW...messes with the bracket but makes for fun watching.
First let me amend my last post...There needed to be a a pause in between "pops" and GMU! The colonials gave me the points I needed from them...thanks for playing. GMU needs to go away now if I am to save anything out of that bracket.
You met someone with a spongebob laugh?!? Were you in a pineapple under the sea?
We had the ol' corn beef and cabbage, Guinness and good Irsih Folk music at a place called the Olney Ale House. I did not meet anyone with an annoying laugh, but there was this guy who smelled bad!
Big baptism today! I'm going to mis at least 2 games 3 if I can't get to a TV at Marias house. I'll be that guy at the back of the church that jumps up and yells yeah at the wrong moment.
