Yes, I wrote it down because my brain doesn't hold things very well anymore.

You know what they say about the Irish? They love to tell stories...and stretch them. They call it 'blarney'. There was a really funny Irish movie out a few years ago. Can't remember the name but it was about a guy who wins the lottery and dies with the ticket in his hand. Another guy takes it and tries to cash it in.

I love google! The movie is Waking Ned Devine. You got to see it. From 1998. It's so Irish!

BTW, my son interned at Google for six months. He loved them.

Your reaction sounds so good about the movie that I went to Amazon, read the reviews and ordered the movie! I can't wait! LOL

Thanks, Marcia!

Oh Chen that sounds delightful, I'll be there in spirit wearing my green. You'll have to tell us all about it on Monday or sooner if you desire. :-) Have a wonderful weekend.

Hope your seat holds us all! Sounds like a great night, I am 1/4 Irish, couldn't even try to tell you which part. But anything that shows off the old traditions is always something to celebrate.
And, yes, you will love the movie!

Chen you are the most exciting (born sometime in the 40's gal) I know. Please save one of those seats for me. I love Celtic Girls, they are so elegant and talented. Me husband is 1/2 Irish on his paternal side, and 1/2 Yerman on his maternal side, both sides born in America. Whenever he hears the song Danny Boy it brings a tear to his eye.

What about the Irish lullaby-too-ra-loo-ra-too ra. Bing Crosby sang it. As I think every Irish mother did too.

I've seen their concert and you'll love it. You don't want it to end. We were supposed to see Elton John and Billy Joel tonight but the concert had to to be rescheduled because Elton John is still recovering from an e coli infection and Billy Joel has the Swine Flu. Bummer!! My weekend isn't looking as fun as yours. Enjoy!!!!! Connie

My daughter plays the harp. She has two irish harps, small one and a large one. She took lessons on a pedal harp (I think that was what it was called) The big ones like you see in orchestras. She prefers her Irish harps. I loved the big harp we rented when she was taking lessons. It looked so elegant along side the piano. I love music but couldn't play or carry a tune at all.

Chen,
How fun. I was going to ask you, is your daughter/niece's name Gaelic? I wanted to name Denise that but my mom pointed out that most people mispronouce it. This from a woman who wanted to name me Penelope (like that doesn't get slaughtered) but then that is probably why she didn't. Anyway I love the name, Shiobban. So pretty. I really like Celtic Woman. Have a great time.
