Okay, who’s Irish and who just fakes it every year?

Good morning, all.

I’m not, and I don’t fake it. I just eat the fake dinner, my love for which is quite real.

Five pounds of corned beef are simmering as we speak. The cabbage, carrots, potatoes, soda bread, Irish butter, and Smithwicks Red Ale are standing by.

Smithwicks for breakfast. Has a ring to it, like April in Paris.

I hate the time change. It’s like I lose an hour of sleep every night.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #36 on:** March 17, 2021, 06:42:06 AM »

Exactly! This is a tough one.

Vibes for DR ELMORE.

Congrats to MR BK on 61% and to DR GEORGE on his investment.

It seems like Thursday but it is only Wednesday.

DR JANE - no I don't think Barnum was happy to see me.....yesterday OR today. He has not adjusted to the time change and is NOT having new seed and water at 7 a.m......too early!

My bank account is officially stimulated.

I am part Irish on my mother's side.

Your repast sounds splendid, indeed, DR ChasSmith.

singdaw · « **Reply #43 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:19:33 AM »

I had potatoes for breakfast. Does that count?

Hmmm.... DR John G. and I have choices to make. I am going to have to re-read Simply.

I didn’t know he was from Cincinnati.

It's a long walk, so I may be late!

elmore3003 · « **Reply #49 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:42:22 AM »

I am home. The entire adventure took me about 90 minutes.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #50 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:43:46 AM »

I am Irish and Scottish on my dad's family side, and English and German on my mother's. I identify as Irish, and I felt so much at home in my three Dublin visits.

singdaw · « **Reply #51 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:47:38 AM »

Glad you are home safe, DR elmore3003.

And glad that you got to go to Ireland. What happy memories!

singdaw · « **Reply #52 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:49:01 AM »

Don't you wonder what the kitties get up to when you're not there to supervise?

John G. · « **Reply #53 on:** March 17, 2021, 07:54:59 AM »

I’m about a quarter each of Irish, Scottish, German and Russian. I do have plenty of scotch in me at times. Or Irish in liquid form.

James Levine has died.

Stunned.

Not that I hadn’t been wondering how long before it would happen, what with the multitude of health issues and lack of mobility in recent years, certainly the scandals, and the loss of his brother who was probably more a lifeline than we even knew.

Exactly. He was the face of the Met to me for decades.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #56 on:** March 17, 2021, 08:05:28 AM »

So it was Palm Springs he’d moved to. I’d heard California, and for some reason I pictured him gravitating more to the north than the south.

And they held the announcement for eight days?? His people were always very controlling with the press, but wow. That’s certainly curious.

No, I don't. it's bad enough when I'm home!

Just now, the TV and everything on one side of my apartment went out because Stella and Thatch are romping and they juggled loose the plug to the power cable holding all the appliances. When they built this apartment in the 1960s, the morons in charge determined a renter could live is a place with only 4-6 wall sockets around.

I just tell them now when I leave that I do not want to come home and find the police here.

Given his demons, he was a wonderful musician, I'm willing to bet the Met debacle and his mental health after it may have precipitated his death
