    There are sober people in Ireland? One other problem ... Irish like to argue! It's something in the blood. As the sign my mother had in the kitchen to describe my father said ... You can always tell and Irishman. You just can tell him much!

    I am jealous! I want to there some day. Do a little family searching while I visit. So many places to go, and so little vacation and money that I have spread them out over a few years. (Quite a few years!)

    Somebody's been watching The Quiet Man too much. Irish people can carry a good conversation, but none of my friends argue any more than my American friends...

    To the casual observer, it was described as an argument.
